On March 2, 2015, at approximately 10pm, Steinbach RCMP received a call from a concerned motorist indicating that a man was sleeping in his vehicle, hunched over in a parking lot on Highway 12.

Police attended the area and located a man sleeping in his vehicle with the vehicle running. The male was found to be impaired and was arrested for care and control of a motor vehicle while impaired. The male was brought back to the Steinbach detachment where he provided breath samples nearly twice the legal limit.

RCMP report that the man, a 41-year-old Niverville resident, will appear in court in April.
