Charge laid in multi-vehicle crash

Perth County OPP have charged a Cambridge native following a three vehicle crash.

On March 11 just before 8 a.m., police responded alongside Perth East Fire Services and the Canadian National Railway to a report of a motor vehicle collision involving three vehicles in the Township of Perth East, near the railway.

A passenger vehicle and two commercial vehicles collided on Perth Road 107, south of Shakespeare. No injuries were reported as a result of the collision. 

A 48-year-old resident of Cambridge is facing a careless driving charge as a result of the collision.

The Spills Action Center was alerted due to a spill of diesel fuel. The road was closed for cleanup and removal of the vehicles from the road and railway, but has since re-opened.
