An Audi A3 fled police conducting an op to tackle drugs smuggling into Forest Bank prison in Salford
Video released by Greater Manchester Police has revealed a dramatic 70mph pursuit through the streets of Salford after a prison visitor 'in a stolen car' saw a major police operation to stop drugs being smuggled into HMP Forest Bank and fled.
The pursuit topped 70mph through suburban streets in Little Hulton before the driver abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. A suspect was later traced with the help of a camera mounted on a police helicopter hovering above. Officers, aided by a police dog, arrested the man in the grounds of a semi-detached house close to some bins.
Drugs are coming into prisons via corrupt jail staff, via prison visits from families of inmates and by packets being thrown over prison walls, but over the last seven years drones have increasingly been used as technology has improved, said Superintendent Andy Buckthorpe.
