'Squealing' dangerous driver shrieks on camera after police dog tracks him down following 80mph chase
A police officer bluntly replied: “Mate, stop screaming”
Body-cam footage shows how a speeding driver was left squealing for help after being tracked down and detained by a police dog.
Godfrey Forster-Davies, 26, from Eckington, can be heard screaming in terror and begging “please help me” after being hunted down by the pooch called Yolo.
He had earlier led cops on a dramatic high-speed chase through several Derbyshire towns on June 18 this year.
Officers had first spotted Forster-Davies driving a Ford Fiesta with a broken licence plate light just after 2.25am in Bolsover.
He failed to stop before reaching 80mph through 30 and 40mph zones, failing to give way at junctions and driving on the wrong side of the road.
The pursuit continued through Bolsover, Shuttlewood and Clowne before Forster-Davies tried to flee on foot through nearby fields.
But was quickly tracked down and detained by police dog Yolo and his handler PC Andy Shaw.
Body-cam footage captured Forster-Davies wailing for help while PC Shaw tells him: “Mate, stop fighting the dog.”
Forster-Davies can be heard shouting in a high-pitched voice “Please, please, help me, help me, oh.”
PC Shaw bluntly replies: “Mate, stop screaming.”
Forster-Davies, of Eckington, appeared at Chesterfield Magistrates’ Court on July 9.
He pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, driving without insurance, failing to stop when required by a constable and driving a vehicle with a tyre which had the ply or cord exposed.
He will be sentenced at the same court on August 27.
