The accused was charged with resist arrest, dangerous driving, failure to stop at the scene of an accident, and operating a motor vehicle while impaired by a drug.
The incident began when the accused's vehicle struck a parked van in a parking lot, propelling it into a third vehicle.
After being told by bystanders not to leave, the accused reversed his vehicle rapidly and fled the scene, driving erratically down Dundas Street at excessive speeds and weaving through traffic.
He was eventually stopped by an off-duty police officer and arrested.
During arrest, he physically resisted police officers.
The court found the accused guilty on all counts, rejecting his testimony and accepting the evidence of multiple witnesses and police officers regarding his bizarre behaviour, erratic driving, and impairment by drugs.
