‘I don’t remember anything’
Eric Belisle, 46, of Fredericton, said he was so intoxicated Sept. 12, he has no memory of drunk-driving incident or telling cop “Go fuck yourself” when breath demand was made
A Fredericton man got into a collision while driving drunk, tried to flee the scene and was cornered by witnesses until police arrived has been sober ever since, court heard Friday.
Eric Belisle, 46, of Capital Manor, pleaded guilty in Fredericton provincial court Friday to a Sept. 12 count of refusing a breath demand.
Crown prosecutor Geoffrey Hutchin said the charge arose after a dramatic impaired-driving incident on the city’s northside earlier this fall.
He said police responded to Gabe Atwin Drive after receiving a call about a motor-vehicle collision at about 10 p.m. on Sept. 12.
