2 charged after driving through collision scene in Sudbury

SUDBURY, Ont. – Two people are facing charges after allegedly driving through the scene of a collision in Sudbury, Ont., and nearly crashing into city police officers.

Police say they were investigating a serious crash early Tuesday morning when a Honda Civic drove through the barricades and into the collision area.

They allege the woman driving the Honda narrowly missed hitting several officers and ran over collision reconstruction equipment before driving towards a parked cruiser.

They say the Honda would likely have crashed into the cruiser if the officer inside hadn’t been able to move it at the last minute.

Police eventually stopped the vehicle and got into an altercation with the driver and her male passenger, who allegedly got back into the car and unsuccessfully tried to drive away.

Both the man and the woman are facing multiple charges, including one count each of impaired driving.
