A 32-year-old man has been charged with assault following an altercation with a snow plow driver in Oshawa on Saturday evening in one of two reported altercations between residents and plow operators followingAt around 9:30 p.m., Durham police officers were called to the area of Wilson Road and Greenhill Avenue after a snow plow driver and a homeowner were reportedly involved in an altercation.
The City of Oshawa’s director of operations Mike Saulnier told CP24 that during the altercation, the accused allegedly attempted to pull the operator out of his vehicle. “Another individual didn't want his street on the corner cleared because he didn't want the windrow, and he got into it with the plow operator, and the same kind of thing happened where he opened the door – he did not touch the operator – and then had a verbal altercation and slammed the door on him,” he said.
He says due to these types of altercations becoming more frequent, some of his senior plow operators have come to prefer the night shift over the day shift.
