Car seen 'overtaking at high speeds' on the A68 in Northumberland

Police are investigating after a report of dangerous driving in Northumberland.

Shortly before 3pm on July 26, officers stopped a vehicle that had allegedly been driving dangerously on the Military Road between the A68 roundabout and East Wallhouses, south of Matfen.

It had been reported that the vehicle, a silver Seat Ibiza, had been dangerously overtaking cars at high speeds.

Now, officers are searching for any witnesses who may be able to help them with their investigation.

A spokesperson for Northumbria Police said: "Officers believe a number of vehicles were in the area and may be able to offer some information or dash cam footage to officers.

"Any witnesses, or those who can help, are urged to contact police via 101 or the online reporting form available on the Northumbria Police website using reference number 723 26/07/20.

"Alternatively you can report via the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
