Driver tries to evade police
WELLINGTON NORTH – An Elora man has been charged after the driver of a pickup tried to evade police recently.
On April 8 at about 10pm, a Wellington County OPP officer was monitoring traffic on Highway 6, south of Arthur, when a blue pickup truck was observed travelling above the posted 80km/hr speed limit.
