According to the Peterborough Police Service, around 11:40 p.m. Friday, officers responded to a report of an unconscious man in a vehicle at a Lansdowne Street West gas station.

Police say officers arrived at the scene and found the vehicle running and a man in the driver’s seat. Officers were able to rouse the driver.

Through the investigation, which included the use of a drug recognition expert, police say officers determined the man was impaired by a drug.

He was issued an automatic 90-day driver’s licence suspension and a seven-day vehicle impoundment.
