So they blocked 2 roads and sent a helicopter out... ?

WHY ??? :confused:

I live on Holgate (poor me) so I saw most of it, and the rest I picked up from everybody else on the street. It started on Deerlands, the police stopped a guy in a fiesta, when the officer went to the car, stuck his head in to speak to the guy, and he sped off, almost taking the copper's head with him. Then came the chase by most of the force (18 cars in total) which came to an end on Holgate road, the guy did a runner down the gennel on to Deerlands, and as far as I know, thats where they caught him.

Roger, u only had to ring me and I'd have told u, u silly sod

If this is the same little git thats been going up and down our side field yesterday tea time, then :clap: :clap: :clap: theres been a sod from mansel tearing up the brook for long enough, it is a great pitty if hes lost his little toy bike:heyhey: :clap:
