A Stratford, P.E.I. woman has been charged after someone warned Charlottetown Police about a possibly impaired driver pulling out of a University Avenue parking lot Tuesday night.
The call came in at 7:20 p.m., according to a police news release.
"E-Watch cameras located the suspect vehicle traveling north on University Avenue and dispatchers directed officers in that direction," the release said.
A vehicle was stopped on Belvedere Avenue a short time later, the release said.
The woman driving it "displayed signs of being impaired by alcohol and was arrested."
