A male passenger was also arrested, for an alleged breach of an apprehended violence order.
Police stopped a car being driven on Tocumwal Rd, Finley about 5.15pm on May 4 for a random breath test.
After allegedly returning a positive result, the 28 year-old driver was arrested for the purpose of a breath analysis, with a small amount of cannabis reportedly found in a subsequent search.
Police allege the driver returned a blood alcohol reading of 0.097.
He was charged with mid-range prescribed content of alcohol, and also issued a cannabis caution.
During the arrest, checks revealed that one of the man’s two passengers was in breach of an AVO.
The 26 year-old was issued with the AVO in March, which prevented him from having any contact with the protected person.
Police allege that protected person was the other passenger in the car.
Business damage
A glass door panel was smashed at a Finley business between 5.30pm on Friday, May 6 and 8.55am on Saturday, May 7.
