Police were contacted just after 2am on Wednesday morning in relation to a quad bike travelling on the A168 near Boroughbridge.

Officers immediately attended the area and noticed a Land Rover acting suspiciously.

Police followed the Land Rover and requested it to stop, however the driver wasn’t keen and made off at high speed.

A pursuit commenced along the A59 towards York and a further police unit set up a stinger site on the A1237 at York.

All four tyres of the Land Rover were stung but it continued for a short time before it eventually lost control and crashed.

Police also sighted an Audi in the same area that was acting suspiciously.

Officers stopped the vehicle and then established that it had been seen with the Land Rover earlier that night.

The Land Rover was confirmed as stolen from an address along with two quad bikes.
