Lancashire Constabulary has made an appeal to the public for dashcam footage after a police vehicle was rammed off of the motorway during a high-speed pursuit of a stolen car. 

The incident happened at the end of the M55 heading into Blackpool at around 12.55 hours on September 19th after a stolen black Range Rover failed to stop for the police. 

After ramming two police cars, the stolen car continued into Blackpool. Thankfully, no police officers were seriously injured during the incident. 

The Range Rover was seen by members of the public as it was being driven dangerously both on the M55 eastbound carriageway and further continuing onto progress way. 

Officers later found the stolen car after it was abandoned. No arrests have yet been made. 

PC Andrew Sidgreaves, of Lancashire Police’s Tactical Operations, said: 

“This will have been a terrifying time for members of the public who witnessed this, and it is extremely fortunate that an officer was not more seriously injured. 

“Our enquiries are very much ongoing and we are now asking for the public’s help identifying the driver involved. 

“We are particularly keen to get hold of any dashcam or CCTV footage from the area which would assist with our investigation.”

Anyone with information or footage is asked to email PC Sidgreaves at 1925@lancashire.pnn.police.uk or call 101, quoting log 0591 of September 19th, 2020.

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of our readers.

And remember, if you have a service, product or job vacancy that you would like to promote to our large readership, then you can buy advertising space in our articles.

    Because the courts are so lenient with offenders it’s worth the risk to try to escape, even if they do damage and injure people they rarely get a harsher sentence, or if they do it runs concurrently with the other sentence so no extra sentence.
