a man arrested after driving a Lamborghini 4×4 on the beach

The incident was recorded by a witness

While in his car, the man allegedly sped through the sand, into the sea and then into the small waves. Faced with the fear of pedestrians, the driver slowed down and tried to get back on the road. According to the daily, the man, a British citizen, offered money to the witness who recorded the incident to delete it.

Alerted by the sounds of the crash, the crew of the Manche Bertrand-Lambert marine station managed to prevent the driver from rejoining the road by parking one of their vehicles. The man was arrested on Friday morning by Le Touquet police and placed in police custody. Video surveillance images should be used as part of the investigation.
