Blondrage has been disqualified from driving for a year and ordered to pay a fine

It took several policing teams, including police dogs, to eventually capture Blondrage, Wiltshire Police said.

On arrest he failed a roadside breath test and was taken to custody where he provided a blood sample which was over the legal limit.
