(BROCKTON, ON) – On January 15, 2026, at approximately 2:32 p.m., a member of the South Bruce Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) was on general patrol in Walkerton when they stopped to check a vehicle along May Street.

The officer had received an automated licence plate recognition system (ALPR) alert, indicating an issue with the observed licence plate. A traffic stop was initiated where further investigation revealed the plate was not authorized to be used on the vehicle, and the driver was subject to a driving prohibition. The driver was taken into custody and the vehicle was impounded for 90 days.

Curtis WHITTEN, 35-years-old, of West Grey, was charged with:

Operation while prohibited, CC 320.18(1)(a)
Fail to comply with release order, CC 145(5)(a)
Possession of a schedule II substance, CDSA 4(1)
Use plate not authorized for vehicle, HTA 12(1)(d)
Driving while under suspension, HTA 53(1) – two counts
Operate a motor vehicle without insurance, CAIA 2(1)(a)
Possess unmarked cigarettes, TTA 29(2)
Care or control of a vehicle with cannabis readily available, CCA 12(1)
The accused was held for a bail hearing on January 16, 2026, and subsequently released from custody. They are set to reappear at the Walkerton Ontario Court of Justice at a later date.
