Driver arrested at Plympton

About 10.15pm on Monday 26 October, police received information about an intoxicated man driving a Mazda sedan on Anzac Highway. The front tyre had blown and was sparking as it travelled on its rims.

Police approached the vehicle after the driver stopped at a nearby service station to change the tyre.

Officer directed the man to submit to a preliminary roadside breath test but he refused and was subsequently arrested.
