Busy weekend for road police in Lancaster

A person was arrested after being found in woodland following a high speed car chase in Lancaster.

The incident yesterday came after a vehicle made off from police in the city.

The car was found abandoned shortly after and two occupants were seen to run off over some gardens.

Some quick teamwork involving officers and police dogs resulted in one of the occupants, who was wanted for other offences, being detained in woodland.

Elsewhere in their shift, another vehicle made off from officers in Lancaster.

One passenger decamped and fled on foot but was soon caught, and the driver and other passenger were all detained.

Drugs were seized from inside the vehicle and the driver arrested for drug driving.

Tac Ops officers also stopped a vehicle in Lancaster that was showing having no insurance.

Checks also found the driver only held a provisional licence. They were reported and the vehicle seized.
