An 18-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle after a suspected stolen car crashed on the M62 during a police chase. The incident, which involved police tactical unit cars, led to a section of the eastbound carriageway in West Yorkshire being closed on Saturday.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) stated they responded to reports of a vehicle theft on Wilson Avenue, Swinton, at approximately 10:30 GMT. The car was later spotted by the National Police Air Service (NPAS) on the M60 in Manchester.
A pursuit ensued onto the M62, with assistance from West Yorkshire Police, where the vehicle collided with GMP tactical aid unit vehicles. A member of the public was taken to hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-changing.
National Highways confirmed the M62 reopened shortly after 15:30.
