A 63-year-old man is facing multiple charges after several police cruisers were needed to stop an impaired driver in Hamilton’s downtown core Tuesday night.
Police say several 911 calls around 9 p.m. alerted authorities to an “erratic driver” in the area of James Street North and Barton Street navigating a vehicle with front-end damage.
The accused was safely arrested after a “tactical vehicle intervention” resulting in cruisers surrounding the car in question.
A man is facing five charges, including an impaired offence and dangerous operation.
An investigation is ongoing and witnesses can reach out to Hamilton police or Crime Stoppers.
