Lancaster drink driver stopped after police deploy stinger

Police had to use a ‘stinger’ to stop a drink driver following a pursuit in Lancaster last night.

An Audi was spotted by officers in Lancaster without headlights on, and then it failed to stop for police.

A pursuit then followed, where police deployed a ‘stinger’ – a device used to puncture the tyres of a vehicle - bringing it to a conclusion.

The driver provided a roadside breath sample of twice the drink drive limit and arrested.
