While Bulldogs superstar Josh Addo-Carr is refusing to comment about the bizarre circumstances around his roadside drug test controversy, NSW police have taken the unusual step to explain why he was allowed to drive after the ‘positive’ test. According to NSW Police, the officers at the scene were unable to follow the normal protocols of the test because they were called away due to an attempted home invasion.
But the results are not immediate and need to be sent off to a lab for analysis. Police and Addo-Carr’s lawyer have both confirmed the first drug test indicated a positive. A NSW Police spokesperson said: “About 10.45pm on Friday, officers attached to Auburn Police Area Command were patrolling Baywater Drive, Wentworth Point, when they stopped a Toyota hatchback for random testing. “The driver – a 29-year-old man – was subject to a roadside breath test which returned a negative result.
