A 29-year-old man was arrested after police officers responded to a report from a resident in the Scarborough area about a vehicle being stolen from their driveway.

The incident was reported last night (Nov 27) but officers quickly spotted the vehicle being driven away from Scarborough.

North Yorkshire Police said: “After noticing our presence, the driver sped off, colliding with a parked car in the process.

“Although the car was lost from sight, our officers remained determined and relocated it abandoned on Main Street.”
