Alleged Drunk Driver Arrested Over Crash At Belmont

 BY IAN CROUCH

A man is due to face court in June over a crash at Belmont overnight.

Police were called to Merleview Street at about 8.00pm on Tuesday where a car had crashed through the fence of a private residence.

The driver, a 32-year-old man, returned a positive breath test at the scene and was arrested and taken to Belmont Police Station.

It's alleged a further test returned a reading almost 5 times the legal limit.

He's been charged with High Range PCA and will face Belmont Court on June 16.
