Police have confirmed that an arrest was made last night after a car smashed into a lamp post and a BT pole.

Brook Street was closed after 9pm following the incident which involved a blue Volkswagon Golf, to enable engineers to replace the telecoms pole.

This afternoon, Dyfed-Powys Police confirmed: “A 33-year old man was arrested and later charged with driving a motor vehicle when alcohol level above the limit, driver of a vehicle fail to stop after a road accident and cause a vehicle to be left in a dangerous position.

“He has been bailed to appear at Welshpool Magistrates court on November 19.”

One MyWelshpool reader described the chaotic scene with the car left in the middle of the road and facing the way it had been travelling (pictured).
