Police who stopped a car on a rural road in Larnaca yesterday found a 16-year old behind the wheel who not only did not have a licence but tested positive in an initial drug test.
There were another two 16-year old boys in the car. One of them was also found to have driven the vehicle without a licence or insurance while a small amount of cannabis was found in the possession of the third teen.
Officers spotted the car being driven recklessly a little after 5.30 pm on Sunday afternoon and stopped it for checks. It was being driven by a 16-year old who did not have a driving licence or insurance. An initial narco-test came back positive.
Police said that a second teen who was in the car had also driven the car which belonged to a family member. Both had driven the car without the permission of the owner.
