Refusal to Comply with Blood Demand

On March 9, 2024, officers with Patrol Services charged 28-year-old Brett Anderson with refusal to comply with a blood demand.

Around 6:50 p.m., officers were dispatched to the area of Carmen’s Way at Second Line East in response to someone found slumped over their steering wheel asleep at an intersection. The vehicle was locked, running, and in drive. Sault Fire Services attended and opened the door. Upon speaking with the accused, officers developed grounds to believe their ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by drugs.

The accused refused to comply with multiple demands for a blood screening. They were arrested.

The accused is charged with:

Failure or Refusal to Comply with Demand

The accused was released on an appearance notice and is scheduled to appear in court on May 6, 2024.
