POLICE officers were led on a car chase through Trowbridge yesterday afternoon.

At approximately 2.25pm, officers spotted a ‘suspicious’ red Fiat Punto in Halfords car park in Bradley Road and after attempting to stop the car, it made off into the Wiltshire Drive area.

Officers said the car was being driven dangerously and at excess speed before it collided with barriers near to the allotments.

Three occupants got out of the vehicle and made off on foot into the Longfield estate.

A Wiltshire Police spokesman said: “The vehicle has been seized and enquiries are currently ongoing. No arrests have been made at this stage.

“Any witnesses who saw a red Fiat Punto being driven dangerously around the Trowbridge area yesterday afternoon should call police on 101.”
