A 23-year-old driver has been arrested after a car hit a pedestrian and flipped onto its roof during a police chase.
The A6 Stockport Road in Levenshulme was closed off last night, Monday October 10, from around 10.30pm until around 1.40am this morning, October 11, after a black Audi was involved in a collision with a pedestrian, according to Cheshire Police. Pictures of the crash showed the vehicle had come to rest on its roof, with police and firefighters quickly at the scene.
According to emergency services, no serious injuries were sustained, although firefighters did have to extinguish a small vehicle fire. Cheshire Police, who initiated the pursuit which led to the crash, told the Manchester Evening News that the car had "collided with a pedestrian" before coming to a stop. The pedestrian escaped with just minor injuries.
