Officers attempted to get the driver of the Volkswagen to pull over in Parson Cross, but he drove off and 'rammed' an armed response vehicle in a bid to avoid capture during a pursuit overnight.

The car was eventually stopped and the driver was detained.

He is being held on suspicion of drink driving and driving while disqualified.
