Officers found that both the driver and passenger sustained non-life threatening injuries.
The driver provided a sample of breath into a roadside screening device which resulted in a fail. Both riders were brought to hospital where police conducted further testing on the driver.
As a result Brad Rancourt, 26, of Bonfield Township, was charged with:
- Operation causing bodily harm

Rancourt was released on a promise to appear and is scheduled to appear in court on October 1.
