(CALEDON, ON) – Members of the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have charged a driver involved in a collision with impaired operation.

On February 25, 2025, just before 10:00 a.m., officers responded to a two-vehicle collision in the intersection of Winston Churchill Boulevard and King Street, in the Town of Caledon. Minor injuries were sustained. While investigating, officers formed grounds that one of the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol, which led to an arrest.

As a result, Himmat PANNU, 21, of Brampton, was charged with:

• Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

The accused is scheduled to attend the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville on March 13, 2025, to answer to the charge. The driver’s licence was also suspended for 90 days, and the vehicle impounded for seven.

Motorists continue to engage in unnecessary risks, compromising road safety. The OPP remains committed to taking alcohol/drug-impaired drivers off our roads through enforcement and public education.
