Ottawa Police detained a Saudi Arabian diplomat for impaired driving after a vehicle was pulled over on Bank Street at 9:30pm Tuesday night.
CTV Ottawa cameras captured the arrest of the diplomat.
Several Ottawa police cars and RCMP responded to the incident.
The driver is a 32-year-old diplomat from Saudi Arabia with full immunity status.

The driver showed signs of impairment and refused a police request to provide a breath sample.
Ottawa Police say he was then released back into the care of the embassy.
