Weekend RIDE results in several charges


Friday and Saturday night (February 27 & 28) Shelburne Police were conducting R.I.D.E. programs at various locations in the town. Over 500 vehicles were stopped and checked for sobriety over the weekend.
Two drivers provided roadside breath tests, however both drivers passed meaning they had a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) of less than 0.05 (less than 50mgs of alcohol in 100ml of blood).
However four vehicles were investigated in relation to Controlled Drugs and Substance Act incidents, and resulted in five people being charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance. A quantity of marijuana and drug paraphernalia was seized from the vehicles. The five charged adult males are: 28 year old David Dallaire-Vermette of Burlington, 24 year old Jesse DeCarvalho of Caledon Village, 23 year old Jacob Harding of Georgetown, 22 year old Braydn Smith if Caledon, and 22 year old Andrew Haffmner of Georgetown. All the accused were charged and released on appearance notices with court dates in late March.
Further, three vehicles stopped in the R.I.D.E. program resulted in provincial offences. The offences include two liquor licence charges for consuming or having open liquor accessible in the motor vehicle under the Liquor Licence Act, and one offence of driving with no licence under the Highway Traffic Act.
If anyone has any information in relation to this case or any other criminal activity, they are encouraged to contact the Shelburne Police Service at 519-925-3312 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.crimestopperssdm.com
