Waasis woman busted with triple legal limit
Cera Kersha Guay, 29, who was fined Wednesday for impaired operation of car, also faced count of assaulting cop, but prosecution allowed her to go through diversion program
A Waasis woman whom police found at the wheel of a parked but running car last spring was fined and barred from driving for a year, but the Crown went easy on her for assaulting a police officer.
Cera Kersha Guay, 29, of Route 655, appeared in Fredericton provincial court Wednesday to answer to three criminal charges.
She was accused of alternate counts of impaired operation of a car and having an elevated blood-alcohol level within two hours of operating the vehicle, and a related charge of assaulting a police officer.
Guay pleaded guilty to the elevated blood-alcohol charge, and the Crown withdrew the impaired-driving count, as defendants can’t be convicted of both.
