ELMSDALE: A tip from a keen eyewitness of an intoxicated man at a business in Elmsdale helped police take an impaired driver from Halifax County off the road.
East Hants RCMP S/Sgt. Cory Bushell said officers were called after the report of the man being inside a local business, appearing to be drunk.
