Man admits drink driving after Queen's Prom crash

Fri, 25 Mar 2016

A man from Douglas has pleaded guilty to drink driving after a serious crash on Douglas Promenade last week.

39-year-old Radoslaw Nelke was involved in the incident on Queen's Promenade on March 17th.

He was breathalysed and was found to be over twice the legal limit - appearing at Douglas Courthouse earlier this week he admitted the offence.

The court was told he was travelling at speeds of up to 80 miles per when he crashed - his five year old child was also in the car.

The case has now been adjourned until April 26th - Nelke has been bailed in the meantime with a condition that he isn't allowed to drive.
