An accident last Wednesday has led to several charges against a male driver.


The Windsor Police Service say they have charged a 51-year-old man with multiple offences following a hit-and-run collision in Amherstburg. Police say that shortly after 11 a.m. Aug. 14, officers responded to a report of a hit-and-run collision in the 9400 block of Malden Road. 


Upon arrival, officers discovered two vehicles with substantial damage. 

According to police, it was determined that an eastbound pickup truck had veered into westbound traffic and collided with two vehicles. Despite losing a front tire in the collision, the truck continued westbound. 


No one was injured as a result of the collision. 


Officers quickly located the vehicle and arrested the driver at Middle Side Road and Concession 2 North. 


The driver has been charged with failing to stop after an accident, operation of a vehicle while prohibited, impaired operation of a motor vehicle, excessive blood alcohol concentration, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, and failing to comply with a release order. 


In May 2024, the accused was issued a Canada-wide driving ban. 


In July 2024, he was placed on conditions to remain in his residence at all times, stemming from several charges, including assault, assault with a weapon, choking, uttering threats, possession of scheduled substance, and failing to comply with a release order.
