Kannur, July 21 (PTI) Kerala police have arrested a 49-year-old man for allegedly driving a car in an inebriated state over a railway track.

Police said they arrested Kannur resident Jayaprakashan who drove his car onto a railway track inside the city on July 18.

“He was drunk. It seems like he mistook the tracks for a byroad and drove onto it,” police said today.

The car got turned off after moving a few metres through the track, following which the railway gatekeeper and locals informed the police and the nearby railway station.
