Then, during the early hours of Wednesday 3 February, a police patrol in Sanem noticed a vehicle travelling at excessive speed. The vehicle was immediately stopped and the driver was subjected to a check. As he showed clear signs of alcohol consumption, a breathalyser test was undertaken which returned a positive result. Officers confiscated the driver’s licence.
