Welshpool man accused of drink driving to stand trial
A man accused of drink driving in Welshpool is set to stand trial later this year.
Marcin Fesker, 34, is said to have driven a blue Honda Accord while under the influence of alcohol in the Oldford Rise area on April 20.
With the aid of a Polish interpreter, Fesker pleaded not guilty to being more than two times over the drink-drive limit.
Welshpool Magistrates' Court was told that Fesker had been charged after a blood test came back as 168mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood – the legal limit is 80mg.
The case was adjourned for a trial to take place at the same court on Monday, October 13.
The magistrates released Fesker, of Heulwen Square, Welshpool, from the dock with no bail conditions.
