THE Police helicopter was called to a Police chase in Eastbourne yesterday after officers tried to stop a cloned car.
Around 7.30pm on Monday 16 December, police on patrol in Eastbourne became aware of a black Toyota Verso believed to be on cloned number plates.
Officers signalled for the vehicle to stop, but it made off at speed and a pursuit ensued.
The pursuit was later aborted due to the risk to public safety and the Toyota was found abandoned in Welbeck Close, Eastbourne, with the assistance of the National Police Air Service helicopter.
Enquiries are ongoing, and anyone with any mobile, CCTV or dash cam footage is asked to report it online or call 101, quoting serial 1294 of 16/12.
