Two people have been charged after a vehicle fire in Arthur.
On July 29th at around 8am, Wellington County OPP responded with fellow emergency services after a report of a vehicle veering off Jones Baseline, landing in a nearby ditch and catching fire.
It was determined the driver was able to escape the vehicle with no other occupants or vehicles involved.
The driver was treated by EMS as a precaution. As a result a 26 year old of Guelph has been charged with Careless Driving and Class G1 Licence Holder Unaccompanied by a Qualified Driver.
The owner of the vehicle arrived on scene, a 27 year old of Guelph who also was charged with Permitting Motor Vehicle to be Operated without Insurance and Permit a Person with Improper Licence to Drive.
Both will appear in court at a later date.
