Officers from the Dauphin Municipal RCMP arrested two people for impaired driving in separate traffic stops this past weekend.
Around 10:30 p.m. Friday night, officers conducted a traffic stop on 2nd Street N.E. The driver, a 17 year old Dauphin male, displayed signs of impairment by alcohol and was taken to the detachment where breath tests were done. Approximately 2 hours later, officers observed a vehicle turn onto Main Street south and cross over the center line in doing so. The officer initiated a traffic stop after the car turned onto 1st Avenue S.W. The driver, a 41 year old Dauphin area man, displayed signs of impairment by alcohol and was taken to the detachment where breath tests were done.
Both people have been released from custody to appear in Dauphin Court later this month.
