A serving West Yorkshire Police officer has been sentenced for drink driving after he arrived at work intoxicated earlier this year.
A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police confirmed the force is aware of the court outcome and stated:
“We expect the highest standards from our officers. An internal investigation is now underway, and appropriate disciplinary procedures will follow.”
No comment was made regarding Goddard’s current employment status, though it is expected the matter will now be reviewed by the Professional Standards Department.
