A man's been charged with drink driving, after being stopped by police in Tidworth.

The vehicle was initially pulled over on Meerut Road at around 11.45pm on Wednesday evening (1st March) for a minor traffic offence.

But officers suspected he'd been drinking when they spoke to him.

Four other passengers were in the car at the time of the stop.

The driver blew over the legal limit for alcohol at the roadside, with another positive reading taken when he arrived in custody at Gablecross, Swindon.

23 year old Quaid Harkess from Donington in Leicestershire has now been charged with drink driving, to appear in court at a later date.
