MATRIX officers pursued a stolen BMW into a dead end before chasing those inside down an alley.
Footage released by police showed marked and undercover patrol cars following the X3 through the streets of Merseyside. They were chasing a teenager later jailed for a different car chase in which a police officer was injured.
That boy was Tre Freeman, today locked up again for even more offences. Freeman was seen dealing drugs from the BMW by undercover officers working on a major gang-busting operation in Cheshire early last year. It was established the vehicle was stolen and later involved in a chase through Newton le-Willows.
