Huntsville OPP charged a man with impaired driving after he crashed his vehicle and then attempted to avoid police by hiding in the snow.
Police said on Dec. 9 at around noon, officers responded to a report of a vehicle in the ditch on Highway 11, southbound near Aspdin Road.
According to police, when officers arrived at the scene, they located a man hiding in the snow a short distance away from the vehicle.
Following an investigation, officers determined the man was impaired and arrested him.
