A 24-year-old woman was arrested and charged after being found driving under the influence of alcohol in Malmesbury.

The incident happened just after midnight on Saturday, April 29.

The woman drove a black Audi at speed just into Station Road car park when police, who were on patrol searching for a suspect in another case, noticed she had a rear light out.

Police said she disclosed to them that she had been drinking.

The woman subsequently failed two breath tests and was taken into custody until sober enough to be charged.
