Arrests made after driver rams cop car and drives through TWO parks during chase

Arrests have been made after a car rammed a chasing police vehicle and drove through two parks. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said the silver Nissan Note failed to a stop for members of the force's Roads Policing Unit (RPU) who were on patrol in Bolton.

There began a pursuit lasting around 15 minutes during which the patrol was rammed, the force said on its GMP Traffic page on Twitter.

It also went off-road and drove through two separate parks, they added.
