A 21-year-old from Swindon has been handed a suspended prison sentence after a reckless police chase that had officers fearing for their lives.
Wild Chase Ends in Crash
Nathan Wiltshire, of Calder Close, Haydon Wick, admitted to a string of offences including failing to stop for police, dangerous driving, driving without a licence, and driving without insurance. The verdict came down at Swindon Magistrates’ Court on December 22.
In the early hours of October 28, officers from the Dog Section and Armed Response Group tried to pull over a Mercedes cruising through Pinehurst. Instead of stopping, the vehicle sped off, triggering an official police pursuit.
