- Police sources report differing breath test results for the detained driver, with one account citing 0.75 mg/l and another 0.84 mg/l.
- In a separate report, a Local Police patrol car on the V-31 was struck by a suspected drunk driver, leaving two officers with minor injuries and yielding a 0.84 mg/l result.
- Judicial traffic investigators say the detained driver allegedly carried false identification, lacked authorization to drive in Spain, and was in a car with an expired ITV.
