TWO men were arrested last night after a police chase
Cleveland Road Policing Unit officers followed a Citroen Picasso on Marton Road, Middlesbrough, when it activated the in-car ANPR for no insurance.
The vehicle failed to stop.
After a short pursuit into the Saltersgill area, the vehicle crashed and was abandoned.
A spookesman said: "After a little jog, the driver was detained and then the passenger who had been hiding in a garden."
Both males were arrested in suspicion of theft of motor vehicle, as well as driving and document offences for the driver.
