RCMP arrest driver after getting tip

Kelowna man now faces potential impaired driving charges

West Kelowna RCMP arrested a 20-year-old man after receiving a tip about a possible drunk driver Thursday night.

At around 11:40 pm, police responded to a tip of a suspected impaired driver in the area of Gellatly Road and Highway 97 and pulled over a black Mitsubishi.

The driver provided a breath sample that came up as a "warning", but by drinking alcohol he breached release conditions and was arrested. 

During a search, police found a banned weapon – a set of brass knuckles. 

The suspect- a Kelowna man – was to appear in court Friday.
