ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — There was no confirmation of a hole in the bog, but there wasn't definitely a car in it when the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary showed up to a call in the east end of the city early this morning.

The 27-year-old driver was arrested for impaired driving and refusing the provide a breath sample. 

He was issued a driving suspension and released to appear in court.

His vehicle — once extricated from the bog — was impounded.
