Description
A stolen Porsche. A dangerous pursuit. A desperate attempt to get away.
After officers spotted a stolen Porsche, the driver refused to stop and fled. What followed was a dangerous pursuit through west London before the vehicle crashed into a lorry.
But the driver wasn't finished.
Abandoning the car, he made a run for it on foot, sending officers over fences and through gardens in a bid to escape.
He was arrested and later pleaded guilty to multiple offences, including dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking, driving whilst disqualified, driving without insurance, failing to stop and possession of Class A drugs. He was sentenced to one year in prison.
