The driver then drove on the wrong side of the road and at excessive speeds in an attempt to lose the police.

The driver eventually dumped the car, and made a quick getaway jumping over a garden fence. In his rush, he forgot to take a bag of drugs, £100 in cash, two mobile phones and a photo driving licence.

The Skoda and its contents were seized for further investigations.
