The Peugeot came to a stop on the bridge on Station Lane, and Bridge Hill was closed to traffic while emergency services attended.

The Peugeot driver had to be freed from the vehicle by firefighters and suffered what police said was a minor head injury, with no other injuries reported.

A 19-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle, dangerous driving, possession of a controlled drug and possession of an offensive weapon. He has since been bailed.
