On January 6, 2020, an officer with the Huntsville Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) was conducting traffic enforcement on Ravenscliffe Road and Highway 11 when they observed a pickup truck towing an enclosed trailer. The officer conducted a traffic stop as the plate did not appear to be attached to the proper trailer.
