Two people have been arrested

Two men have been arrested after a van reported to have been stolen crashed into a ditch off a main Nottinghamshire road. Officers say they saw a vehicle travelling northbound along the A1 with cloned plates on Tuesday, August 8.

The vehicle was heading into Balderton at around 3.50am, with police activating their blue lights as it joined the A46. At that point, police said the driver ignored orders to pull over leading to a pursuit which ended when the van crashed into a ditch in Broadgate Lane, Kelham. Two suspects were detained at the scene, while several boxes of suspected stolen car seats – valued at more than £2,500 – were then found inside the stolen van. A 31-year-old man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, theft of a motor vehicle, failing to stop, and driving while disqualified.

Police also arrested a 30-year-old man on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle and theft from a motor vehicle. PC Mike Drury, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “While we’ve arrested two suspects in connection with this incident, this is still an ongoing investigation, so we’d ask anyone who has any information to contact the police on 101, quoting incident 75 of 8 August 2023, or report it anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
