Detained for drunk drive, police attack

A 55-YEAR-OLD man has been detained for allegedly driving while drunk and attacking a police officer, Shanghai police said yesterday.

The incident took place last Saturday night in downtown Huangpu District. The man, surnamed Zang, drove through a police road block at the crossroads of Xizang Road S. and Jinling Road E.

He was stopped by a motorcycle police officer about 3 kilometers away. The police officer, Zhu Jiajing, asked Zang and a woman to step out for an examination, but was attacked.

The two were subdued by officers a short time later. Zhu received minor injuries.

Zang had a blood alcohol level measure at the scene of 131mg/100ml, which surpassed the standard of 80mg/100ml for drunk driving.

Both Zang and the 37-year-old woman surnamed Liu could face the criminal charges of dangerous driving and impeding the work of government officials.
