From earlier:

A few people have been in touch telling us about a police operation they’ve witnessed in Connah’s Quay.

Three police cars were seen surrounding a small car possibly a Peugeot on Kelsterton Lane near to the College at around 5pm this afternoon.

Police were also seen in a ‘chase’ up towards Morrisons supermarket at around the same time.

Ally told us:

“Madness going on in the Quay. Seized car by the dip by the college, then nearly hit head on by a police chase heading towards Morrisons – All at great speed, had to swerve. Hearts going mad here ?”

Andy got in touch to say:

“A red saxo Citroen going like a bat out of hell over the quay hill. Almost hit me turning into Bryn Rd! Next thing I hear is police sirens going off.”

This is a developing story – more as, when and if we get it.
