“The subject provided breath samples at the detachment. The results of those samples were approximately four times the legal limit, which is very alarming.”
The driver was later released and is set to appear in court on March 7.
RCMP couldn’t confirm who reported the incident. When approached by Moose FM, Hay River operator Reliable Cabs declined to comment.
