Teen Audi driver from Pill tried to run and hide after 21-mile police chase

Technology tracked a teenager who led police on a 21-mile pursuit lasting 30 minutes. Police spotted Brooklyn Woodman driving an Audi A1 and, as he looked young, followed him.

But when they pulled alongside him he sped off. Having initially lost him, police deployed road traffic cameras to track his whereabouts as well as a helicopter using a night vision camera to give them an eye in the sky.

After half-an-hour Woodman, who had two passengers in his car, clipped a kerb, came to a halt and ran off. And after a foot chase police found him hiding behind a concrete pillar and arrested him.
