The vehicle was travelling at around 120mph an hour in a dangerous manner, including switching off its lights when officers turned on their blue lights and sirens, according to Norfolk Police. A spokesperson said: “It also carried out several dangerous manoeuvres, including undertaking another vehicle at speed.

“The pursuit continued onto the B1111, where officers lost sight of the car. The Fiesta passed a number of motorists on the A11 and we are asking anyone who was in the area and may have dashcam footage of the vehicle to get in touch.

“We would also encourage the driver to come forward and speak with us.” Anyone with information should call police on 101 or contact them online and quote reference 492 of March 11.
