A teenager led police on a high speed chase in her mum's truck after taking a trip to McDonald's in the early hours of the morning.
Brodie Lee Denham, who only had a provisional driving licence and no insurance, took her mum's pick-up truck without permission in the early hours of March 10 this year and went for a drive with a passenger. But when suspicious police attempted to pull over the 18-year-old, she failed to stop, instead leading officers on a 10 minute chase that only ended when a stinger device was used.
Denham, of Kirkstall Walk, St Helen Auckland, Bishop Auckland, appeared at Durham Crown Court on Thursday to be sentenced for dangerous driving and driving without a licence or insurance.
