Dashcam footage has revealed the moment police officers chased a car through Manchester city centre before arresting four men from inside.
In the early hours of Sunday morning (March 17) officers from the Roads Policing Unit were made aware of the vehicle on its way to the city, with occupants believed to be linked to a series of thefts from nightclubs across Merseyside.
A short police pursuit followed, and items believed to be stolen phones were then thrown from the car windows in attempt to hide them from police.

After the vehicle was stopped by officers, police discovered 17 additional phones, bank cards, personal identification items, and sim cards. Greater Manchester Police said investigation work is ongoing to return these to their rightful owners.
Using specialist tactics, police from GMP and Cheshire Constabulary were able to safely bring the vehicle to a stop. Four men, aged between 27 to 36 were arrested on suspicion of theft. They remain in police custody for questioning.
Sergeant Jeff Hollick from GMP Roads Policing Unit said: “These arrests are a great result thanks to effective cross force and border collaboration. Criminals don’t operate to borders, so neither will we, and we will use all resources available to stop criminals in their tracks.
This is a great example of how our unit are able to utilise their specialist training to pursue criminals and bring them into custody. This wasn’t a one-off operation; it was an extension of the excellent collaborative work we already do between forces on a daily basis to further prevent and disrupt criminals across the region.”
