Vehicles damaged by falling garbage from moving pick-up truck

Tuesday, September 9, 2025 at 5:00 AM

It happened Sunday afternoon along a stretch of Highway 7 in Central Frontenac.

Taking out the trash apparently has led to motor vehicle charges.

Frontenac OPP were called to a section of Highway 7 near Arden Rd. in Central Frontenac Sunday afternoon.

Investigators say the driver of a vehicle reported that some garbage fell from a pick-up truck and struck the vehicle causing significant damage.

They say another driver claimed that his vehicle suffered minor damage after debris fell from the same pick-up truck.

It was later located parked at the side of the road.

A 71-year-old from Arden was charged with having an unsecured load.
