July 1, 12:05, Drunk Driving, Karlstad

Cars traveling on national road 26 contact the police due to a truck driver driving his vehicle in an extremely dangerous manner. The truck is said to have swerved violently between lanes and the driver is also reported to have attempted to pass other cars, despite meeting traffic and the absence of so-called "gaps" in his own lane.

A patrol was dispatched to locate and stop the driver's progress. The stop was made at Skattkärr and the driver, a man in his 45s, blew positively in the breathalyzer.

He is now suspected of gross drunk driving. Additional charges may be added.
