A GARAGE manager is demanding an apology from police who he claims wrongfully arrested him during a row with a customer.
Darren Tandy, of Mr Clutch garage in Gateshead, carried out work on a Land Rover but when the customer came to collect his car he put the brakes on paying the quoted bill of £1127.
When Mr Tandy, 34, refused to agree to a lower fee for the work, he says the car owner called in police, who arrested him and put him in a cell for three hours before releasing him without charge.
