Drink-Drive Suspect Eats His Socks
A suspected drunk driver has shocked police in Canada by using some strange tactics to avoid a breath test.
Man avoided giving breath sample
The 19-year-old man drank contact lens solution and tried to eat his socks when he was stopped by an officer in Walkerton, Ontario.
The suspect has been found sitting in his car with the lights off on a country road.
He was arrested when a police officer approached the vehicle and concluded the man was drunk.
As the officer prepared breath test equipment, the suspect grabbed a contact lens case in his car.
He then drank the solution, ate one of his lenses and tried to eat parts of his shirt and socks.
Police eventually had to try and undress the man to stop him eating all his clothes.
The suspect got into a tussle with officers and was subdued with pepper spray.
When he was transferred to a holding cell, the man put his head in a toilet to avoid giving a breath sample.
He has been charged with failure to provide a breath test and is due to appear in court in October.
