East Algoma OPP said they fielded a complaint Thursday around 5:30 a.m. of a man who was slumped in the driver’s seat of a blue minivan on Highland Place, with the motor running.

“Police attended and tried to speak to the man, but he was dancing to music inside the minivan and ignoring police,” the OPP said in a release. “He then proceeded to urinate all over the steering wheel and driver’s seat area.”

The man continued to be uncooperative, the OPP said, but eventually entry was gained and the man safely arrested.

“In his possession was suspected fentanyl, crack cocaine, and crack pipes,” police said. “There was also an open bottle of rum and cans of beer, both empty and full, inside the van.”

The minivan was subsequently towed and impounded.

Kevin Mikkelsen, 49, from Elliot Lake was charged with impaired driving over 80 mgs, driving with pot readily available, and possession of hard drugs.

The accused was scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice Bail Court in Blind River on Thursday.
