In a Facebook post, the team said: “Three were detained from a vehicle, which had stopped off for a pit stop.

“Unfortunately, one of the occupants ran, but so did PD Rocky. Good boy Rocky!

“That is three awaiting an interview to discuss a burglary from earlier on in the day in Rotherham, along with numerous other offences, including robbery and possessing Class A drugs.”
