By James Smith 21st Oct 2021

A driver was arrested for child neglect on Saturday (October 9) after fleeing from officers and crashing his car with two young children in the back.

The man, who was also arrested for dangerous driving, had two children under three on the back seat not securely strapped in.

Warwickshire Police officers chased the Skoda VRS into Barford after the driver failed to stop for them.

And after crashing it was found the car had false plates, and the driver had no licence or insurance.

An OPU spokesperson said: "The driver was arrested for Dangerous driving and child neglect as it turned out he had two children in the back under three years old and neither were securely strapped in.

"Further checks were conducted and the car was on false plates, the driver had no licence or insurance too."
