A MAN who took his brother’s car for a romantic late night Chinese takeaway meal with his girlfriend is facing court for having no insurance.
As well as having no insurance, police also found that he didn’t ask his brother’s permission and he had no licence to drive.
PSNI Foyle say on its Facebook page: “Recently Ballyarnett Npt 🚔 detected a male who took his brothers car without his knowledge or permission.
“Needless to say the brother wasn’t too impressed when we contacted him.
