Officer found behind wheel of idling vehicle after 911 caller reported man possibly in medical distress By: Ryan Thorpe | Posted: 7:00 PM CST Friday, Jan. 22, 2021
A five-year veteran of the Winnipeg Police Service has been charged with impaired driving.
Christopher Logan, 29, was found intoxicated behind the wheel of a running vehicle on the 500 block of McMeans Avenue East in Transcona late Tuesday morning, police said.
General patrol officers were called to the scene for a well-being check after a caller told a 911 operator they had seen a man possibly in medical distress inside a running vehicle.
When they arrived at about 11:15 a.m., officers placed the driver later determined to be Logan under arrest after they observed signs of impairment. Logan was off duty at the time.
