Headline: Moment pedestrians escape death by inches as suspected drink-driver speeds along busy pavement

Caption: WORDS BYLINE: Molly Nicholas A man who was believed to be unfit to drive was arrested after being seconds away from hitting pedestrians on a pavement. A 22-year-old man from Huntingdon was arrested last Tuesday on suspicion of dangerous driving, failing to stop, common assault, drink driving, driving whilst unfit through drink/drugs, assault and false imprisonment. CCTV footage from Stotts Fish Restaurant in March captured the moment the driver of a Volkswagen Polo drove at high speeds along the pavement between the shop and parked cars – just seconds away from hitting pedestrians who ran out of the way. The man has been bailed until April 15.
