A MAN was arrested for failing to stop and being over the drink drive limit after he was stopped by police.

Officers asked the driver of a white Volvo car to stop, in Spencer Road, Lidget Green, Bradford, shortly before 5am last Sunday, but he drove off.

He was followed and was blocked in by three police vehicles five minutes later, at the junction of Great Horton Road and Bartle Lane.

The 42-year-old driver was charged and bailed to appear at court at a later date.
