Larksville police say the man told an officer he was using the golf cart to navigate the borough's streets Monday night because he had been drinking and needed a way to get to a bar.

Police say the man initially refused to stop for the officer and nearly rammed a squad car with the golf cart. He was taken to a hospital for a blood alcohol test.
