With the help of St. Thomas Police, the driver was located. He displayed signs of intoxication and registered a fail reading when tested.
Sixty-seven year-old Kenneth Gagnier was charged with operation while impaired and failing to remain.
His licence was suspended for 90 days and vehicle impounded for seven days.
