A MAN accused of crashing his car into a front garden while drunk will appear in court today.

Rolandas Kojalavicius, 25, is alleged to have smashed his vehicle into another car before driving into a wall outside a house in Blackhorse Road, Walthamstow, on Saturday, January 1, at around 11.20am.

No-one was injured.

Mr Kojalavicius, of The Mile End in Walthamstow, will appear at Waltham Forest Magistrates today charged with drink driving.

The alleged incident happened close to the junction with Glenthorne Road, just metres from the scene of a similar but unrelated crash in August last year.

In that case a car also crashed into a front garden in Blackhorse Road, damaging the house.
