Police in Derry arrested a man on suspicion of traffic-related offences last night, Monday 9th September. 

District Support Team officers were on patrol on Creggan Road at approximately 8pm when they signalled for the driver of a vehicle to stop, using lights and the siren. However, the driver continued, towards Springtown Road.

When the vehicle came to a stop, police subsequently arrested a 39-year-old man on suspicion of driving while disqualified, failing to stop for police and using a motor vehicle without insurance. He was also arrested on suspicion of driving when unfit through drink and drug. He has subsequently been bailed to allow for further police enquiries to be conducted. 

Enquiries are ongoing.
