At approximately 8 pm, Powell River RCPM officers responded a report of four naked males running around a campground. When police arrived on scene the males had already departed. A description of the vehicle the males were in was obtained and the vehicle was later located on Hwy 101. The male driver from Switzerland displayed signs of alcohol impairment. He was given a roadside breath test which he failed. He was issued a 90-day immediate roadside prohibition and the van he had rented was impounded for 30 days.
