Driver who was arrested in Preston for numerous crimes has been given a prison sentence

37-year-old Alan Parsons from Castle Court, Wednesbury in the West Midlands was stopped on Garstang Road by Lancashire Road Police on New Year’s Eve last year (December 31, 2022).

At the time, Parsons provided false details but the fingerprint device revealed his true identify. He was then arrested for drug driving, disqualified driving, having no insurance, being in possession of offensive weapons and for obstructing police.

The weapons found on Parsons included a double edged axe, a hammer and a knife, whilst he tested postive for cannabis use.

Today (March 24), Preston Police revealed Parsons had received 22 weeks imprisonment at court, as well as being ordered to pay costs of £150 and a surcharge of £154.
