Colchester, UK - Officers at Essex Police were engaged in a pursuit with an Audi TT in Colchester after the driver failed to stop in Northern Approach Road at about 1.50am on Monday.

During a 10-minute chase, the driver drove through multiple red lights, and they reached speeds of up to 70mph in 30 and 40mph zones.

The vehicle entered farmland in Boxted and became stuck in boggy mud.

Officers had to wade through the mud to detain the driver, when they also discovered a knife.

A man aged in his 30s, from Walton, was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, failing to stop when directed, drug driving and possession of a knife in a public place.

The two officers, Sergeant Paul Gosling, of the Roads Policing Unit and Special Sergeant Amanda Taylor were praised for their work.

Head of Essex Police's road policing unit, Adam Pipe, said: "This is the kind of work my officers are engaged in every day – patrolling our county’s roads to make arrests and keep the public safe.

“This often results in the removal of knives and other weapons from the streets of Essex.
