The police go around the bridge to catch up with him, while reinforcements wait for the fugitive on the other side. He was finally arrested on rue Louis Magnein the Saint-Georges district, soaked to the bone.
After refusing to blow into the breathalyzer the first time, he changes his mind and accepts: he is still almost one gram of alcohol in the blood. And this is not his first refusal to comply with the police. The Buguois has received a summons to court, for next December 10.
