Impaired Elliot Lake woman on e-bike charged

On May 27 at 12:40 a.m., officers with the East Algoma detachment of the OPP were on general patrol on Mississauga Avenue and Hillside Drive South in Elliot Lake when they observed an e-bike being operated in an erratic manner.
 
The bike looked like it was out of control. There were no lights on the e-bike and it failed to stop at the intersection. Police initiated a vehicle stop at which time the female driver pulled to the side of the roadway and fell over. A strong odour alcoholic beverage was detected on her breath. She was subsequently arrested and charged for impaired driving and control of a motor vehicle.
 
Tina Rebellato, 50, from Elliot Lake has been charged with driving a motor vehicle while impaired and driving with more than 80 mg of alcohol in the blood. She is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Elliot Lake on July 3.
 
The OPP remind motorists that no amount of alcohol or drug is acceptable when driving. Report impaired drivers. Should you observe a suspected impaired driver, please dial 911 or contact the OPP at 1-888-310-1122.
