A serious collision in Bradford led to multiple charges for a Barrie man last week, including one for attempted murder.
South Simcoe police say officers responded to a single-vehicle rollover in the area of Line 11 and Sideroad 10 in Bradford on March 15 at about 4 p.m. Officers located the male and female occupants, who had managed to exit the overturned vehicle.
County of Simcoe paramedics treated them for minor injuries at the scene. However, investigators allege the crash and injuries to the female were the result of "intimate partner violence."
As a result, police charged a 31-year-old Barrie man with several offences including attempt to commit murder, dangerous operation of a vehicle, uttering death threats and assault.
The accused, whose name was not released by police, was held for a bail hearing.
None of the allegations have been tested in court.
