Cloned Vehicle

On Monday 27th October Neighbourhood officers PC Walsh, PC Woods & PCSO Fox responded to reports of an aggressive male driving a vehicle within the Bury area, the vehicle was spotted by officers driving towards Heywood. The driver soon became aware of our presence and attempted to evade our livered patrol vehicle by hiding in a secluded carpark. Unfortunately for the driver and passenger officers quickly spotted both males walking away from the vehicle and detained the driver due to suspecting the vehicle being on cloned plates.

Upon checking the vehicle, it was soon discovered that the vehicle was indeed displaying false plates likely to disguise that fact that the driver did not even hold a valid driver’s licence, and that the vehicle had no insurance.

Driver arrested at the scene for various offences with investigations still ongoing.
