Two men arrested after police car chase for failing to stop in Northampton
The pursuit began after a vehicle failed to stop for police.
A tense police car pursuit was sparked when a vehicle known to be involved in criminality failed to stop for officers in Lings Way, Northampton at around 11.45am yesterday (November 24).
The vehicle in question was a black Honda Civic, which was pursued by police to Bradlaugh Crescent where two men abandoned their vehicle and ran.
One of the men, a 20-year-old Northampton man, was quickly tracked by PD Bryn and subsequently detained by officers.
The second man, an 18-year-old Northampton man, was detained after officers received a tip-off from a member of the public.
Both men were arrested for failing to stop for police.
Northants Police Dog Section tweeted: “PD Bryn supported @Northants_RCT earlier when a vehicle known to be involved in criminality failed to stop. The suspects decamped and two arrested after a great containment by RCT and a track from Bryn. @NorthantsChief’s investment in vehicle fleet and dogs paying off again!”
