The criminal court of Pau (Pyrénées-Atlantiques) sentenced a 25-year-old man to one year in prison on Monday.

While driving and drunk in Oloron-Sainte-Marie on the night of February 26 to 27, he avoided the gendarmes' roadblock three times, before being finally stopped by a harrow, reports Sud Ouest. .

Six gendarmes are civil parties

The defendant then refused to submit to the alcohol test and insulted and threatened the soldiers for a long time, going so far as to spit on one of them.

Six gendarmes thus became civil parties.

The man ended up acknowledging the facts during the hearing, explaining that he had drunk half a bottle of whiskey that evening, “maybe”.

Already sentenced 13 times since 2014, the defendant was also sentenced to the revocation of a nine-month suspended sentence.

He will have to pay between 300 and 500 euros to each gendarme.
