Significant theft followed by police chase

He reported that, "Following a report of a significant theft in the Dartmouth area, (1220hrs) a very diligent Kingsbridge colleague stopped a vehicle near to Totnes Cross. The driver was taken into custody, the passenger fled the scene. Whilst conducting searches in the area, we learnt that the outstanding male had taken a Taxi towards Ivybridge. Several South Hams officers made their way to Ivybridge, located the taxi and were soon involved in a foot chase, tracked by the helicopter. Im happy to report, the outstanding male has now been detained on suspicion of theft".

 

Well done to all the officers involved - great team work!
