“While speaking with the driver, officers noted a strong odour of an alcoholic beverage coming from the driver’s breath,” police stated.
“A subsequent breath test revealed the driver had more than twice the legal limit of alcohol in his system while operating the tractor.”

He was released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 27.
