Falkirk police release 'artists impression' of car seized as wanted man arrested

Police have released an artists impression of a vehicle they seized during an incident in Falkirk.

Officers stopped the Saab car on Summerford Road in the town last Tuesday March 15, and the driver was found to have no insurance or a valid license.

The 40-year-old was also wanted by cops on a warrant which resulted in him being cuffed at the scene and taken into custody.

Cops forgot to take a picture of the incident so instead released an artists impression of the car.

Posting on the Forth Valley Police Division Facebook page, they said: "On Tuesday morning Falkirk Response officers stopped a car on Summerford Road, Falkirk.

"Checks showed the 40 year old male driver did not have a valid licence or insurance.

"He was also wanted on warrant for which he was arrested. The Saab car was seized and driver reported to the Procurator Fiscal for the driving offences.

"The officers dealing with the incident forgot to take a photo of the vehicle being uplifted so have provided this 'police artist's impression' instead.

"If you know someone who is driving without a valid licence or insurance let us know on 101 (always 999 in an emergency) or online."

The post have gone down a storm with social media users, one commented: "Does the artist take commissions? The likeness here is just awe inspiring."

Another said: "I bet they never forget to take a photo again."

A third wrote: "Looks like your kinda drawing", tagging a mate.
