The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary is investigating a pedestrian-vehicle collision that occurred Tuesday around 9:50 p.m.

According to police, a 23-year-old man was sent to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The RNC in the St. John’s area responded to 225 calls Tuesday and early Wednesday morning.

At 3 a.m. today, a 22-year-old woman was charged with impaired driving and having a blood alcohol level above the legal limit, following a traffic stop in the Kenmount Road area. She was released until a court appearance.

Police also responded to a boiler room fire at the Waterford Hospital around 12:45 p.m. Tuesday.

The RNC said the fire was contained to the boiler room and there were no injuries.
