TWO drunken men who walked over a police car were among 110 people arrested last week in a North-East police force's continuing crackdown on drunkenness, violence and disorder.
A Northumbria Police spokesman said the men walked over a police panda car that was parked outside Idols Nightclub, in Sunderland, in the early hours of Sunday.
Chief Inspector Jo Miskimmin said: "This sort of behaviour is totally unacceptable, it beggars belief that anyone would do such a thing to a police car while two officers were watching."
The arrests in Sunderland last week are part of Chief Constable Mike Craik's pledge of total policing, under "The Party's Over", a forcewide summer initiative.
Of the 110 arrests for week ending June 26: 45 were for drunkenness, 39 for assaults and 26 for disorder.
Chief Insp Miskimmin said: "We are continuing to target people who get drunk and then become violent and disorderly in Sunderland."
