Additional Charges Laid in UHaul crashing into Cochrane OPP Detachment

On July 22, 2019, at approximately 6:15 p.m., members of the James Bay Detachments of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) responded to a motor vehicle crashing into the OPP detachment on Third Avenue in the Town of Cochrane, Ontario.

A member of the public, who was in the front lobby, suffered serious injuries and was transported to hospital by the Cochrane District Emergency Medical Services (EMS).

The driver of the cube van was immediately arrested. This person was also transported via EMS to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries and has since been released.

As a result of the ongoing investigation, Trevor ROBERTSON, 45-years-old, of Mississippi Mills, Ontario, has now been charged with the additional offences:

• 2 counts of Mischief Over $5000, contrary to section 430(3) of the Criminal Code (CC); and
• Mischief Endangering Life, contrary to section 430(2) (CC)

The accused remains in custody and is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Cochrane, Ontario on July 29, 2019 to answer to the charges.
