A POLICE chase in Middlesbrough last night led to the uninsured driver abandoning his car after crashing it.
But the hapless fugitive left his phone and wallet in the car after running off.
Cleveland and Durham Roads Policing Unit said on Facebook: "After a short police pursuit in Middlesbrough last night, the driver of this vehicle chose a very unusual place to park his car.
"Despite the driver running away and evading police, he may wish he'd taken his time as in his rush he left behind his phone, wallet, and his car is going off to the big crusher in the sky,"
Police have powers which allow them to impound or destroy uninsured cars.
