Impaired charges were laid after a car crashed into a home in Georgian Bluffs.

Provincial police received a call shortly before midnight Wednesday about a car that had struck a residence on Sir Johns Crescent.

Police say the homeowners were sitting in the room when the car crashed into their house. They were not injured.

As police were speaking with the driver, they detected the smell of alcohol.

A 48-year-old Toronto woman was charged with operating a vehicle while impaired by drugs and alcohol and having open liquor in the car.

The accused is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Owen Sound on August 8.
