A Newport man will appear before magistrates next month following an alleged fail to provide incident in Arreton yesterday afternoon (Wednesday).
At around 14:50, officers stopped a car driving on the A3056 through Arreton, and conducted a drug wipe procedure on the driver.
The driver was then arrested and taken back to Newport police station.
A man in his 30s from Newport was subsequently charged with failing to provide a specimen for analysis.
