Nicosia: 43-Year-Old Driver Arrested with Seven Times the Legal Alcohol Limit

Police in Nicosia arrested a 43-year-old driver last night on Agias Annas Street in Strovolos, after he showed clear signs of intoxication. A breathalyzer test revealed an alcohol concentration of 148μg%, almost seven times the legal limit of 22μg%. The driver was taken into custody and is expected to appear before the Nicosia District Court for immediate prosecution. This arrest serves as a reminder of the dangers of driving under the influence and the strict enforcement of laws to protect citizens. Investigations are ongoing by the Agios Dometios Police Station.
