Snr Sgt Dinnissen said police found him in his parked car, and directed him to hand over his keys. The man refused and "smacked the outstretched hand of the officer". The man accelerated into a parked car, continuing to a dead end, u-turning and colliding again with the same parked car, this time head on, Snr Sgt Dinnissen said. "He failed to stop when signalled, crashing into another moving vehicle, before coming to a stop on Eglinton Rd where he was arrested." The man refused all requests for police blood alcohol testing.
