Russell George, of Prestbury, said he was coming down Stott Street and about to enter Mayor’s Walk at about 20:00 on Sunday when he noticed a police van driving fast and recklessly.
“He was driving towards oncoming traffic as he turned into Victoria Road.
Accident
“At this point I was concerned about the safety of other road users,” self-employed George told The Witness.
“He suddenly jammed on his brakes and came to a complete stop.
“I got out of my car and went towards him and I asked him if he knew what he was doing. He started his car and carried on driving,” he said.
Continuing to drive recklessly, the policeman turned into Logan Road and came to a stop at the Howard Road intersection.
George decided it would be best to call 10111. He was told the police would be there shortly.
“After five minutes, no one had arrived. So I jumped out of my car and I approached the driver’s side and asked him to come out. He looked at me and I could smell that he had been drinking.
“I asked him again, and he refused.
“I then grabbed his keys, pulled him out and locked him in the back of his own van,” George said.
