Man arrested for drug-driving in Alvechurch

A MAN who was arrested for drug-driving in Alvechurch last night was already banned from the roads until 2023 after previously committing the same offence.

He was pulled over in a Ford Focus Zetec on the Birmingham Road by officers from Worcestershire’s Operational Policing Unit.

The police carried out a roadside drug swipe and he was found to be under the influence of cocaine.

His previous three-year ban was only handed to him in January.




As well as the arrest the vehicle was also seized.
