Winnipeg police have charged one of their own officers with impaired driving.
Police were alerted to a business in the 1300 block of Henderson Highway on December 8, where it was reported a suspected impaired driver just left that location.
Officers identified the suspect as an off-duty member and arrested him a short time later at a residence. No injuries were reported.
Oleksii Gerasymchuk, 39, has been charged with impaired driving offences.
Police say the officer is a two-year member of the service.
The Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba is monitoring the case.
