Two suspects charged at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court after stolen car pursuit with Nottinghamshire Police in Radcliffe

Two suspects have appeared in court after being charged by police investigating the theft of a car.

Officers from the Nottinghamshire Police's Road Crime Team spotted a car which was known to them in Welbeck Road, Radcliffe-on-Trent, at around 7.50pm on Monday evening (April 10).

The vehicle was travelling with another car which had earlier been reported stolen.

The second car failed to stop for officers and a police pursuit ensued before the car crashed in Ruddington.

Officers then pursued a suspect on foot across a number of fields before he was detained.

The first vehicle was also followed with another suspect arrested nearby.

Louis Denham, aged 26, of no fixed abode, and 38-year-old Timothy Wilson, of Rodwell Close, Beechdale, Nottingham, appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday (April 12) charged with the theft of a motor vehicle.

Sergeant Neil Haynes, said: “We are working hard as a force to prevent vehicle crime occurring in the first place as well as arrest, charge and bring to justice those responsible.

“This was a great piece of work by the Road Crime Team, working closely with Armed Response, a Dog Section officer, response officers and the control room.”
