Clinton News Record, 2014-07-02, Page 1010 News Record • Wednesday, July 2, 2014 OPP NEWS BRIEFS BLUEWATER - A 39 year old male will be without driving privileges for three days this week following a traffic stop on June 22, 2014. At 3:15 a.m., Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers responded to a complaint of a red SUV that was heading northbound on Bluewater Veteran's Highway. The witness observed the driver of the Ford SUV travelling in and out of the marked lane of travel. Officers located and stopped the suspect vehicle on Bluewater Veteran's Highway near Telephone Road. Upon speaking with the driver the officer detected the driver had been drinking alcohol. This resulted in a roadside test being administered. The driver failed the roadside test and was transported to the Forest OPP Detachment for breath tests. He later provided samples of his breath to the Intoxi- lizer Technician and his readings now registered in the warn range. As a result, a 39 year old male driver from Chatham was served with a three day driver's license suspension. Additionally, his motor vehicle has been impounded for three days. HURON COUNTY - The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is once again teaching kids that getting caught 'doing the right thing' this summer can be cool. Through a partnership with Mac's Convenience Stores, OPP officers who see young people doing ran- dom acts of kindness and exhibiting positive behaviour will be handing out `tickets', which are actually coupons valid for a free Froster beverage at Mac's. Operation Freeze 2014 provides law enforcement officials with an additional tool to initiate conversation and promote community awareness. During the upcoming summer months, OPP officers across the province will be presenting thousands of these cou- pons to kids. Officers will use Operation Freeze to recognize youth for wearing bicycle helmets; doing good deeds like picking up trash; observing crosswalks and participat- ing in community activities. They can also be used as conversation starters to help establish a rapport with kids in their patrol areas. "Any opportunity that police officers have to interact with young people is an excellent way to open up con- versation and develop a rapport with them," said OPP Deputy Commissioner Brad Blair, Provincial Com- mander for Traffic Safety and Operational Support. "When police officers work with local businesses to rec- ognize youth, positive things can happen. Partnerships like the ones made during Operation Freeze can leave a lasting impression on our youth and make our commu- nities better places to live." "Mac's is once again proud to partner with the OPP on this important initiative that gives kids a chance to show they do care about their communities," said Sean Sportun - Manager, Loss Prevention & Security for Mac's. "Crime prevention is important to us and when young people show positive behaviour, we want to reward them."
