Impaired Driver Draws Police Attention by Speeding
15-16069
An officer’s attention was drawn to a vehicle travelling at a high rate of speed early Sunday morning. At about 5:10 a.m. an officer saw a car speeding east down John Counter Boulevard, and initiated a traffic stop on Division Street.
When the officer activated the cruiser lights the vehicle continued a short distance, in an erratic manner, striking the curb and coming to rest at the entrance of the A&W restaurant at 1166 Division Street.
The officer suspected the driver had been drinking and administered a roadside screening device, which the driver failed. The female driver was then arrested and taken to the police headquarters, where she provided two breath samples that were nearly double the legal limit of 80mgs per 100mL of blood.
The 48-year-old female driver was charged with Operation over 80mgs and later release on a Promise to Appear at a later date.
Traffic Complaint Leads to Drug Charges
15-16147
A traffic complaint on Division Street Sunday night led to an arrest for possession of controlled substances.
At about 10:15 p.m. on June7, police received a complaint about a motorized vehicle being driven through red lights, and not having any lights on the vehicle. Police located the E-bike a short time later at Division Street and Guy Street, stopping it at Fraser Street. Officers recognized the rider from previous dealings. The rider claimed he was unfamiliar with the bike as his excuse for having no lights on.
While officers were talking to the E-bike rider they observed prescription medication bottles bearing the name of another person on the floorboard of the bike. They also located a “Kinder Egg” in the basket of the bike. Kinder Eggs are well-known to police as vessels for illicit drugs. They are originally sold as children’s toys that come wrapped inside a chocolate egg. Persons who traffic in drugs commonly find these containers useful for holding illicit drugs, and police have been familiar with this practice for some years. Additionally, Kinder Eggs are best known in the justice system for being an effective tool in introducing contraband into jails and prison inside body cavities.
Officers searched the Kinder Egg and found crystal methamphetamine. They also later located evidence of drug trafficking in the possession of the accused.
When officers attempted to arrest the accused, he fled from them on foot down Fraser Street, but was recaptured after a brief foot chase.
Richard J. FLOOD, 39-years-of-age, of Kingston is charged with three counts of Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking, and Escape Lawful Custody. He appeared in the Ontario Court of Justice on June 8, 2015 and was remanded in custody.
Fleeing Motorcycle Results in Charges to the Passenger
15-16217
A 30-year-old Kingston man who was the passenger on a fleeing motorcycle in the downtown core was arrested and charged for multiple offences.
At approximately 4:00 p.m. on June 8 a Uniform Patrol officer observed a motorcycle with two occupants pass by him southbound on Patrick Street near Raglan Road at a high rate of speed. When the officer made a U-turn in an attempt to read the licence plate of the motorcycle he observed the passenger look back over his shoulder and then forward again, possibly advising the driver of police action.
The motorcycle then accelerated through a stop sign at Patrick Street and Colborne Street and proceeded the wrong way up Ordnance Street to Barrie Street. Due to the potential danger to other motorists and pedestrians in the area the officer did not engage in a police pursuit of the motorcycle.
A second patrol officer in the area observed the passenger get off the motorcycle and attempt to flee on foot in the area of Princess Street and Barrie Street. The male was quickly detained, identified and determined he was breaching multiple conditions of both a Probation order and an Undertaking. A search of the accused also resulted in the discovery of break-in instruments, namely a flashlight with a glass-breaker on the tip, a screwdriver, a wrench, a set of Allen keys and other objects. He was also in possession of a cell phone and a small digital scale, objects he was prohibited from possessing while on an Undertaking for former drug charges. Francis J. McINTOSH attended a bail hearing on June 9 and was remanded into custody with a future court date. He is charged with Possession of Break-In Instruments, Breach of Probation and three counts of Breach of Undertaking.
The motorcycle and rider were last seen travelling the wrong way up Johnson Street on the sidewalk. Kingston Police are interested in identifying the motorcyclist in relation to his dangerous driving. The motorcycle is described as a 1992 blue with red Honda CBR sport bike.
