Police in Fife were forced to use a tactical stop manoeuvre to bring the driver of a Volkswagen to a stop following a car chase, after they say he refused to pull over.
Traffic cops carrying out a routine patrol on the A92 in Glenrothes say they tried to flag down the white VW Golf at around 9pm on Thursday July 21. When the driver - a 35-year-old man - refused to stop, police began a pursuit with other vehicles joining in to provide backup.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said "tactical contact" was used to bring the runaway hatchback to a halt, with no injuries reported. Images shared on social media showed the car at a standstill parked at an angle to the road on the Bankhead Roundabout, with a police car immediately to its right.
