At a recent police surgery, residents reported concerns about a local male believed to be regularly drink-driving and discarding empty whiskey bottles and cans in nearby bushes to avoid detection.

in response the local Beat Team:
Increased patrols in the area and worked with local businesses and members of the public to identify the individual.
Officers located him, carried out a breath test, and arrested and charged him.
He has now been released pending a court appearance, where he is likely to face a driving ban.
