Five individuals are facing impaired driving related charges.

The Niagara Regional Police Service has released the latest list of impaired driving offenders.

Officials say between November 8th and the 14th, five people were charged for impaired driving by alcohol or drugs, refusing to provide a breath or blood sample, or driving with a blood alcohol level above the legal limit.

The list includes two people from Welland and one individual each from Pelham, St. Catharines and Dunnville.

The offenders range from 25 to 62 years old.

The NRP says impaired driving is the leading cause of criminal deaths in the country.
