On December 6, 2022, members from the East Algoma Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were conducting patrol duties on Water Street in the Town of Thessalon.
At approximately 8:00 p.m., police observed a black pick-up truck travelling northbound on Water Street. The vehicle began to travel at a high rate of speed, turned down Barber Street and entered a private driveway. The driver who exited the pick-up was known to officers as being a prohibited driver and was arrested.
As a result, Nicole MORNINGSTAR, 50 years-of-age from Thessalon was charged with:
