Suspected drug-dealers drove a car 'directly' at police officers in pursuit before mounting a pavement to avoid a head-on smash, GMP revealed today. Two men have been arrested and the force revealed a 'large amount' of cash and several mobile phones were later seized from the Mazda hatchback.
Both men were held on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs, dangerous driving and possessing criminal property. They have been released on bail pending further investigations.
Police today thanked a member of the public who tipped off officers about the men and the car. The force said it acted immediately on the intelligence, which it said was crucial in making the arrests. No injuries were reported.
