"While this is ongoing he will not be commenting", it added.

"A 37-year-old man from Cowbridge was arrested on suspicion of driving whilst unfit," it said, in a statement.

"He has been released under investigation."

The incident took place on Church Road in Llanblethian

Kathryn Arnold, who recently moved to the village, said: "After the accident we lost electricity for a couple of hours the following day while the telegraph pole was being repaired and replaced.

"I also know that some houses' internet was down for a lot longer too and there's still been problems with it."

A message on Mr Wallis's Facebook page said a planned surgery with constituents on Saturday had to be postponed until the New Year as he had tested positive for Covid.
