A driver is off to court and his car will be crushed following a ‘short pursuit’ around Garden City earlier this evening. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Police said the driver of an “un-road worthy shed of a (Seat) Leon” tried to outrun officers from North Wales Police (NWP) Intercept Team who were in their “pristine” BMW 330. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The driver allegedly failed a roadside drugs test after officers smelt cannabis in the car. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

He also had no driving licence police said. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Commenting on the NWP Intercept Team Facebook page, a force spokesperson said: “Oooops… didn’t get away this time did you.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“This is the moment the driver of the black Seat Leon was given his rights after he took our officers on a short pursuit around Garden City.’ ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“He must’ve thought his un-road worthy shed of a Leon could outrun our pristine 330…. Wrong!” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“There was a right stink in the car so it was no shock when he tested positive for cannabis.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We’d say hopefully he’ll lose his license at court but guess what… he didn’t have one anyway.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
