Two police officers sustained injuries after a stolen vehicle collided with their patrol car during a pursuit in Grimsby. The incident occurred on Wednesday after police responded to a report of a stolen vehicle on Byron Grove.
Officers were called to the scene around 1 p.m., initiating a chase that concluded when the suspect vehicle allegedly struck a marked police vehicle. Both vehicles came to a stop, and the two injured officers were transported to a hospital for treatment.
A 16-year-old male, who cannot be named for legal reasons, faces numerous charges. These include dangerous driving, taking a motor vehicle without consent, and possession of controlled substances. Additional charges involve driving without a license and insurance, making off without payment, aggravated vehicle taking, and driving a vehicle without the owner's consent.
The teenager has been remanded into secure accommodation and is scheduled to appear in court at a later date. Byron Grove is described as a residential area within Grimsby, Lincolnshire.
