The 6-year diesel heist: Conception Bay South man arrested

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary arrested and charged a 39-year-old woman for impaired driving after a single-vehicle accident early Friday morning.

Officers responded to a call of a crash on the Trans-Canada Highway, in the east end of St. John's, around 4 a.m.

Police detained the woman for a breathalyzer test and as a result, she was charged with failing the breathalyzer and impaired driving.

She was released to appear in provincial court at a later date.
