A 31-year-old Watson man was arrested overnight for traffic and drug offences.
Between 10.30pm and 11.30pm last night (Monday, January 23), ACT Policing Operations received several calls from members of the public reporting a blue Ford Falcon station wagon ramming into other motorists.
This included reports of the Ford Falcon tailgating at least four separate vehicles with its high beams on, and ramming into these vehicles when they stopped at traffic lights.
Around 11.45pm, a City patrol located the Ford Falcon driving on Cotter Road. A search of the man and his vehicle resulted in police seizing approximately 500 grams of cannabis, 21 pills suspected to be MDMA and around 7.2 grams of white powder, suspected to be heroin.
The man was taken to the ACT Watch House, where he was charged with two counts of furious, reckless or dangerous driving and three counts of trafficking a controlled substance.
He will face the ACT Magistrates Court this morning.
