Sarnia police say it's fortunate no one was injured late Friday afternoon when a 35-foot motor boat ran onto the beach behind a house in the 1400 block of Andover Lane. At about 5pm police found a vessel resting about 35 feet onto the shore and the operator still aboard. Constable Les Jones says a 35-year-old Grosse Point Michigan man faces charges including impaired operation of a vessel and dangerous operation of a vessel.
