Two fans of Tim Hortons will be making a trip back to Perth to visit its courthouse after the Ontario Provincial Police charged them with impaired driving last week.
The first incident started at about 11:55 p.m. on Nov. 27, when a caller reported a possibly impaired driver operating a Mazda passenger vehicle. Officers on patrol located the suspect vehicle at about midnight in the Tim Hortons drive-thru on Gore Street in Perth.
As a result, the OPP have charged Eli Prentice-Crapper, a 25-year-old Newboro man, with driving while his ability was impaired and being a novice driver with a breath alcohol concentration above zero.
A transport truck driver was also charged with impaired driving after OPP officers were called to the Tim Hortons on Highway 7 in Perth at about 9:50 p.m. last Thursday. The caller reported that the transport was blocking access to the establishment.
When officers arrived, they found the unit parked across the entrance to the restaurant with the engine running. The driver was in the vehicle and was spoken to.
As a result, Brian Wark, a 56-year-old man from Mississippi Mills, was charged with driving while his ability was impaired and care or control of a motor vehicle while impaired.
Both men were eventually released and are scheduled to appear at the Provincial Court in Perth at a later date.
