Two criminals have landed behind bars after West Midlands Police recovered a gun and Class A drugs during a dramatic stolen car pursuit in Sandwell.

Fiesta Chase Through West Bromwich

Officers spotted a stolen Ford Fiesta on Wood Lane, West Bromwich, at around 10am on 5 May. The driver, 23-year-old Tammem Miah, took off at speed.

Miah ran red lights and drove on the wrong side of the road, forcing some vehicles to swerve onto pavements to avoid high-speed collisions. He even hit one car, but thankfully the driver escaped serious harm.

The chase ended on Arthur Road, Tipton, where Miah attempted to flee on foot. Police caught him outside a nearby address and found a revolver, ammunition, heroin, and crack cocaine in his bag.
