Morley man charged with impaired driving.
A single vehicle collision sent a 15-year-old female from Morley to hospital yesterday with glass shards in her face, after the 22-year-old male driver rolled the vehicle with three times the legal blood alcohol content level.
The rollover occurred four kilometres outside of Cochrane on Star Ranch Road on May 30 at approximately 5 p.m., with three other passengers in the vehicle, the 15-year-old female, a 17-year-old male and a 24-year-old male, all from Morley.
Alcohol was a factor and the driver was charged.
No one was wearing a seatbelt and only minor injuries were sustained.
Alcohol and speed believed to be a factor in collision
STARS airlifted a driver after a collision last week.
A single-vehicle rollover sent two Calgarians to hospital after the collision last Thursday. The 20-year-old male driver from Calgary went in the ditch off of Highway 1, travelling eastbound at approximately 8 p.m., with speed and alcohol believed to be a factor.
The driver was airlifted by STARS with serious life-threatening injuries but since has stabilized. The 19-year-old female from Calgary was also taken to hospital by ground ambulance but has since also been listed in stable condition.
Charges are pending following an investigation.
