PSNI arrest male after spotting him drinking from a can of lager while driving in Ballymena
A male driver has been caught while literally drinking and driving in Co Antrim.
He was spotted taking a drink from a can of lager while at the wheel as police drove past his vehicle in Ballymena at the weekend.
"The male was observed drinking from a can of lager as the Interceptor crew drove past,” a police spokesperson said.
"The driver failed a roadside preliminary breath test and was subsequently arrested and taken to a local custody suite.
"In custody the driver provided an evidential sample of breath of more than twice the drink drive limit. Charged to appear in court in the near future.”
