MADD Quinte 2011 Hero Awards

The Quinte Chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving recently presented their Community Hero Award to Breanne and Shaun Hadley of Belleville.

Last June the brother and sister were tavelling to Picton when they spotted an impaired driver. They immediately dialed 911 and reported the driver to police. The driver forced 15 vehicles off the road before being stopped by police. The Hadleys remained on the phone for several minutes and provided crucial information to police. Without their assistance the driver would have eventually killed an inocent person.

The award was presented to Breanne and Shaun by MADD Quinte President Cst. Doug Norman.
