00:00Police intercept is a real life one.
00:01I'm going to tell my kids we might do this.
00:03And you're riding with the pride of Northamptonshire.
00:06Speed 120.
00:09Ace Pursuit drivers...
00:11Contact, contact, contact.
00:12M-51.
00:13...with air support...
00:14Got two outs, I'm right.
00:16I'm out!
00:17...and a crack dog unit.
00:18If you leave, you will get hit.
00:20Argh!
00:23They bring down the bad guys...
00:24I believe you're one in mate, wouldn't it?
00:27Pick the dog, don't go!
00:28...to keep the streets safe...
00:30What? What do you want?
00:31Yeah, I get back.
00:32Argh! Get on the floor!
00:33...and battle 24-7...
00:36Get down on the floor!
00:38...in the war on crime.
00:40Crash, crash.
00:41I'm just flying around!
00:43Here's what it is, isn't it? We find them, we lock them up.
00:48Coming up...
00:49Oh, police!
00:51Come to the door with nothing in your hand!
00:54...firearms in suburbia...
00:56Oh, police!
00:57...come to the top of the stairs, nothing in your hand!
01:01Wrong side of the roundabout.
01:02...a runaway driver...
01:04Fecal stop! Fecal stop!
01:06...has his bubble burst...
01:07Police! Stop it now!
01:09...and things that go...
01:11Argh!
01:12...in the night.
01:136-1, mail's been tased, unsprayed.
01:15...not everyone on the road boasts interceptor driving skills.
01:23Come on, people. Don't lose your minds. It's a...
01:27...a junction.
01:28But they get there in the end.
01:30There you go.
01:31Perfect harmony.
01:32It's a pitch-black Thursday.
01:33Rob and Charlie are on patrol near the A45.
01:35No worries, if we can start considering seeing the signs.
01:37And the call has come up from the firearms squad,
01:38who need help stopping a Mitsubishi outlander.
01:39Let's start going.
01:40Yeah.
01:41We'll make it to...
01:42We'll make it to...
01:43...we'll make it to...
01:44...we'll make it to...
01:45...we'll make it to...
01:46...we'll make it to...
01:47...we'll make it to...
01:48...a junction.
01:49But they get there in the end.
01:50There you go.
01:51Perfect harmony.
01:52It's a pitch-black Thursday.
01:53Rob and Charlie are on patrol near the A45.
01:55No worries.
01:56If we can start considering seeing the signs.
01:58And the call has come up from the firearms squad,
02:00who need help stopping a Mitsubishi outlander.
02:03Let's start going.
02:04Yeah.
02:05We'll make it to Grange Park in Northampton.
02:13ANPR cameras have picked up...
02:15...a vehicle that's got...
02:17...a P&C marker on it.
02:20It's used in...
02:22...what we call...
02:24...occupier fences, which are theft from vans.
02:27So the occupants of this...
02:29...subject vehicle will break into vans...
02:31...and steal out the power tools and similar.
02:34...before leaving the county.
02:37The vehicle that they've travelled up in...
02:39...is confirmed as a clone vehicle.
02:43No thefts have been reported tonight.
02:45But interceptors want to disrupt...
02:47...any plans to hit vans on their patch.
02:50So you've got roads policing, arm response...
02:53...and dog units making to Grange Park.
02:56Clear left.
02:57So we're going to try and...
02:59...get there as quickly as we can...
03:01...to try and find a suitable stinger site.
03:03Quickly as we can is pretty damn quick...
03:06...in a Beamer 340.
03:08The advantage we have of the car that we're in...
03:09...is that we've got the performance...
03:10...to get to where we need to be.
03:12But it's not about your equipment...
03:14...it's what you do with it.
03:15And advanced pursuit driver Rob...
03:16...has the minerals to handle the Beamer's 382 horses.
03:19Let's get on the roundabout.
03:20That's OK.
03:21And as he gallops towards Grange Park...
03:22...there's an update on the clone 4x4.
03:25Stand by, stand by, stand by, stand by.
03:27Contact, contact, contact.
03:28Subject meeting.
03:29You're failing to stop.
03:30So it's now failing to stop...
03:31...for our armed response colleagues.
03:32The target's failed to stop...
03:33...and firearms have failed to keep up.
03:34Temporary loss.
03:35Temporary loss.
03:36Temporary loss.
03:37Temporary loss.
03:38Temporary loss.
03:39Temporary loss.
03:40Temporary loss.
03:41Rob and Charlie need to reach the area fast...
03:43...which means copper's privilege at the Reds...
03:45...and no slowing for bumps in the road.
03:46Brace.
03:47Brace.
03:48Brace. Brace. Brace. Brace.
03:49Brace. Brace.
03:50For the bump.
03:51Here it comes.
03:52Oh yeah.
03:531-1.
03:54We're just coming 10-6 to the area.
03:55Is there anywhere that's still not covered.
03:56We can do with that.
03:57That's all the way.
03:58Okay.
03:59I'm going to a test at the doctor.
04:00Oh yeah.
04:01We're going to go to you.
04:02You're doing 4x4.
04:03You're taking a test at the 10-6.
04:04Do I?
04:05I'm going to go to the left.
04:06You're going to go.
04:07OK.
04:08You're going to go to the right.
04:09And we're going to go to the left.
04:11There is a different.
04:12There's a different place.
04:13That's a different place.
04:16Stinger, say, on Bridge Medall, you're to rent about.
04:20Cops are flooding the area and laying stingers on potential escape routes
04:24to take out the target's tyres.
04:27Yeah, we'll have to go farm on that.
04:29But before Rob and Charlie can lay their own stinger, it's all changed.
04:34The Outlander's been found abandoned.
04:37Great commercial events is in West.
04:41But a Toyota also potentially linked to thefts has been seen in the area.
04:47For that last read, what is it?
04:48That's the Aventis. What is it?
04:50One, one.
04:51No, no, no.
04:53What, we'll just go with the plate of that Aventis again.
04:56What's the plate of the Aventis you've got?
04:58They're not sure if they're behind the new target...
05:01Is that coming?
05:03But it's looking increasingly likely.
05:05I don't know, but he's doing 60 and a 30.
05:07We've got a possible Saxon Avenue.
05:1060 and a 30.
05:1160 and a 30.
05:16Wrong side of the roundabout.
05:17Wait.
05:18The driver's failed to stop.
05:21He's now correct side, back round the roundabout.
05:24I'll get you a road name.
05:25And he's no idea of the armed response vehicle up ahead.
05:31I'll be on the roundabout.
05:33He's coming up to you now.
05:34Or the Stinger team in the trees.
05:44Invisible in the shadows, Sting Ninjas cast their spikes.
05:49And take out four tyres.
05:52Unfortunately, they're so well hidden...
05:55We're stung as well.
05:59They've stung one of Rob's tyres too.
06:02Get a road name, mate.
06:03Yeah, it's in my channel. All we've got?
06:05But with a perfect strike on the target...
06:08Saxon Avenue, towards the BP garage.
06:12This chase is as good as over.
06:14Go to them, Lucy. Go to them.
06:17Perfect.
06:20Everybody towards the BP garage.
06:21That's last point of contact.
06:23We still have contact with it.
06:25It's wrong side. I'm stung as well.
06:26It's bad to decamp. Bad to decamp.
06:28A runner at the passenger door clocks Charlie and thinks again.
06:32Police! Stop it now! Stop it now!
06:35The Toyota is back on the move.
06:40But by the time Charlie sprinted back to the Beamer...
06:44Right, right, right into Wutton.
06:47Four figures have bailed out and legged it.
06:49And they may be armed.
06:50They've got crowbars. Get in front of me.
06:52The runners have fled into the woods.
06:54And as Charlie gives chase and the cavalry rolls in,
06:57every cop and their dog are after them.
07:03Three out. All in black.
07:04All balacarvers.
07:05Across the A45 now.
07:07Police are taser!
07:09It doesn't take long to catch up with one of the men.
07:13Come here. Stand still.
07:14Get here. Get out. Get out.
07:15Get on the floor. Get down.
07:16Get down. Get on the floor now!
07:17Get on the floor!
07:18Get on the floor!
07:19Give me your hands out!
07:21Get your hands out!
07:22Get your hands out!
07:23One detained. Three running into Fudge.
07:26Mate, you're under arrest.
07:28It's all right.
07:29The phone is stopped for police at the moment.
07:31I'm not the driver, mate.
07:32No? I'm going equipped.
07:34I'm going equipped for theft.
07:35Stand up! Stand up!
07:37His blue light taxi awaits.
07:40With that we sell him, we're literally going to be less than five minutes.
07:43And they'll need more transport, because Firearms has just caught a second suspect.
07:48I'm having Rob to stop doing the quits.
07:50Don't have to say anything, but it may harm the defence if you don't have to mention one question,
07:54so we can take the line in court.
07:55Anything you can do, so no.
07:56How many came in here?
07:57Three, I think.
07:58Oh, it was just one?
07:59Get done, fellas.
08:00You what?
08:01Get done.
08:02Yeah, we've got you, yeah.
08:04There are no signs of the other two runners, but Rob has recovered a potential weapon.
08:10So, I imagine as that's been on the floor where they went to get out, it's probably
08:14what he's had in his hand.
08:15And any plans the occupants of this car had for the evening have been well and truly disrupted.
08:21We've locked a couple of them up, and we're going to have two cars away, because the car
08:24that they were originally looking for was stolen.
08:27The cloned Outlander, abandoned earlier, was nicked, and though the cops can't connect
08:32the two in custody with that car, its owner will be glad to have it back.
08:37The bad news is Rob will have to wait to get his car back as well.
08:42Did you get it bursting out?
08:44Yeah, I did.
08:45It's only front, near side.
08:48The good news is he's canched a lift with the recovery driver.
08:52Oh, didn't it?
08:53Sweet.
08:54The cops couldn't prove who was driving the Toyota, and no further action was taken
09:01against the two men nicked running away, either for going equipped or for driving offences.
09:07However, with a stolen car off the street, and no thefts from vans on the Interceptor's
09:12patch, it was a good evening's work.
09:16Coming up...
09:21Good.
09:22Good.
09:23Good.
09:24Good.
09:25A potential firearm in the living room.
09:27One firearm located in the front room.
09:30Taser's drawn on a wanted man.
09:33Show me right!
09:34Show me right down on the ground!
09:35Show me right!
09:36Show me right!
09:37And taser fired in a roadside rook.
09:41Ah!
09:56Early doors on Saturday morning.
10:01And interceptors are moving through the county in numbers.
10:06Oh, say to the team, then, if you just stick your body wards on for us, please.
10:10Armed response vehicles are approaching a house of a wanted man, who Intel says may
10:16have firearms.
10:17Hey, mate.
10:18All good?
10:19Yeah, all good.
10:20The guy they want failed to attend court on charges of dealing, and the firearms squad
10:27are pretty pumped to put him away.
10:30Yeah!
10:31But he has a history of violence towards cops, and given he may have firearms, the team
10:38is taking no chances.
10:40White face is on.
10:41Can I just confirm that?
10:42Black face is on.
10:43Yep.
10:44They're wearing body armour and packing LMT carbine rifles.
10:49There are no lights on, on the white aspect.
10:53I believe there are lights on, on the black face.
10:56Lights are on, but is anybody home?
10:58Oh, police!
10:59Come to the door with nothing in your hands!
11:05Hello, just go back in your house, mate.
11:07Oh, do you not really have to?
11:08Go back in your house.
11:09Sorry.
11:10This is not what the neighbours need at 5am.
11:13Do you want to dress forward with a shield?
11:14Just give it a whack on the door.
11:20If anyone is inside, they're not answering.
11:29Put some challenges in, no response from the address.
11:34A light upstairs.
11:36Just confirm the light's gone on upstairs, black face.
11:42Contact front door, stand by.
11:45And a figure at the front door.
11:48There's a shadow gone.
11:51Police, show us your hands.
11:53Step out for us, please.
11:55Step out of the front door.
11:57Walk towards us.
11:58Walk towards the back of this car.
11:59Walk towards the back of the car.
12:01Keep walking this way.
12:02This way.
12:03Walk to the back of the car.
12:04The figure, a woman, is not their suspect.
12:05Hello.
12:06Who's inside the address?
12:07Just me.
12:08I'm sorry.
12:09I just literally just woke up.
12:10No worries.
12:11And the early riser has had quite a shock.
12:12What is going on?
12:13OK, have you got a phone with you or anything?
12:14Yes.
12:15Can I ask that you just put that phone down and you don't use it for the minute?
12:16All right?
12:17So there's nobody else inside the address?
12:18No.
12:19Is he in there?
12:20No.
12:21He's not in there?
12:22No.
12:23Where is he?
12:24No.
12:25Where is he?
12:26No.
12:27He's not in there?
12:28No.
12:29Where is he?
12:30No.
12:31I don't know.
12:32I actually don't know.
12:33I never know where he is.
12:34OK.
12:35Just stay here with him a minute, OK?
12:36And just stay off your phone, OK?
12:37Definitely no one else in that address?
12:38No.
12:39No?
12:40OK.
12:41OK.
12:42Going forward.
12:43They can't take her word for it because the word is their suspect has weapons.
12:54Police!
12:56If you're in the address, come to the front door.
13:01Quiet.
13:02As the grave.
13:04OK.
13:05You form up on the door.
13:06I've got the window.
13:07I'm too.
13:08When you're happy then, mate?
13:10What?
13:11Three, four.
13:12Yeah.
13:13You're ready to go.
13:14They're going in.
13:15Open door.
13:18Right on me.
13:19The first job, ensure no one's here.
13:22My room.
13:23OK.
13:24OK.
13:25The cupboards ain't going to get in any of these cupboards up the washing machine,
13:29as you say.
13:30That's fine.
13:31So, right is clear.
13:32My cover ahead of you is minimal, mate, so you should be aware of that.
13:37No sign of the suspect, but...
13:39Revolver.
13:40Gun.
13:41Gun.
13:42A weapon.
13:45Gun.
13:46Gun.
13:50Looks like a side gate revolver with rounds in it.
13:53It does look like a long-barreled revolver.
13:56One potential firearm.
13:57Which looks to be loaded with some form of rounds.
14:02And a sword.
14:03And a sword.
14:04Or two.
14:06There's a machete under there, as well.
14:09With weapons all over the shop, and a suspect with a history of violence towards cops, tensions are high.
14:15I'm not convinced he's not here.
14:18OK.
14:19Form up.
14:20We'll take the stairs.
14:22Oh, police!
14:23Come to the top of the stairs.
14:24Nothing in your hands.
14:25No response.
14:26On me.
14:27Brad.
14:28You're having to support.
14:29Yeah, yeah.
14:30My room.
14:31Stay out.
14:32Room is clear.
14:33Out.
14:34My room.
14:35My room.
14:36Stay out.
14:37Room is clear.
14:38Out.
14:39My room.
14:40Stay out my back because I'm going to open this.
14:41Coven?
14:42Yeah.
14:43All right?
14:44Yeah.
14:45You all right?
14:46Yeah.
14:47You're going to have to poke your head in there.
14:48There's nothing obvious.
14:49But you're going to be right in my arc of fire.
14:50I've got a really good move.
14:51Yep.
14:52That's clear.
14:53Cool.
14:54There's no one in the main house.
14:55First floor and second floor are clear.
14:56We're just going to get the loft cam.
14:57But leaving no story unturned, they brought a specialist camera to peek in the loft.
15:01You're all going to stick it up.
15:02I'm going to try and get this out so he's got an opportunity to jump into it.
15:03Okay, point it at an angle slightly.
15:04Perfect.
15:05Start rotating it, mate.
15:06Keep going.
15:07Clearly remnants of a house.
15:08There's no one in the main house.
15:09First floor and second floor are clear.
15:10We're just going to get the loft cam.
15:13But leaving no story unturned, they brought a specialist camera to peek in the loft.
15:18You're all going to stick it up.
15:19I'm going to try and get this out so he's got an opportunity to jump into it.
15:24Okay, point it at an angle slightly.
15:27Perfect.
15:28Start rotating it, mate.
15:30Keep going.
15:33Clearly remnants of a cannabis.
15:36There are signs of a long dead cannabis grow.
15:39There's loads of bags out there, but I'm happy which, as far as I can see, it's a small loft.
15:44But their wanted, potentially armed man is still at large.
15:48When did you last see him?
15:50I think it was yesterday.
15:52Yesterday?
15:53The day before.
15:54I don't know, to be honest.
15:56And they've no leads.
15:57As night bleeds into day, cops across the county are on the lookout for the wanted man.
16:07You know him?
16:08Yeah.
16:09He's well known to the interceptors.
16:11So we'll see if we can try and find him.
16:14It's just where he's going to be.
16:161183.
16:18Go ahead.
16:20Are you able to change?
16:22I'm just trying to mark you.
16:23But it proves a fruitless search.
16:26So annoying.
16:28Where that woman is going.
16:30Yeah.
16:31That's where it's possible.
16:34It's only as evening shifts begin to hit the streets that better news comes in.
16:38Matt, I'm just up by the church.
16:42I take it it's parked outside the shop, is it?
16:45An Audi attached to their suspect has been seen parked up in the north of the county.
16:50Yeah, it's parked outside the Morrison.
16:53Morrison's Daily.
16:55Roger.
16:56Bertie, where are you?
16:57We're just parked up on that.
16:59Cloud.
17:00Cloud.
17:01Close.
17:02Okay.
17:03Three cop cars are keeping the parked Audi under ops.
17:06We're just waiting to see whether he's still using the vehicle or not.
17:10The male's known to us.
17:12He's previously been quite violent towards police.
17:15So we'll probably be looking to put some robust tactics in place to ensure he's safe for rest.
17:22But after a long wait with plenty of time to amuse on life, love and the universe.
17:27I often wonder what happens to animals when they die.
17:30There's no sign of their elusive target.
17:33I think we're going to leave this car in Rothwell for now.
17:38It's a question of resources.
17:40Three units could be doing something potentially more useful than watching a stationary car.
17:45On the off chance someone returns to it.
17:50It's just a point of getting there.
17:52Which they just have.
17:54The Audi's on the move.
17:58And so is Tony.
18:01Before joining the force, TP worked a ride at a local theme park.
18:06So he's used to the ups and downs of a rollercoaster shift.
18:11What are we saying?
18:12We're going to try and ID him first or...
18:14Just going to put a stop in.
18:17Two miles ahead of Tony, an unmarked car is tracking the Audi.
18:21But no one knows if the wanted man connected with a potential firearm is at the wheel.
18:25We're going to try and ID the driver before we decide on what kind of tactics he's going to put in.
18:30Obviously if it's not our subject then we'll let it ride for another day.
18:34If we can get a positive ID then we'll probably look to put some kind of tactics in.
18:40In convoy with a fellow marked unit, Tony hangs back.
18:44Not one, not one.
18:46Guided by comms from the lead car ahead.
18:49Not two, not two.
18:53Not three, not three.
18:54Six, six, six, four, six, four.
18:57He's probably going to be aware of us by now.
18:59So we've got two unmarked cars behind him now.
19:03So we'll see.
19:05Up ahead, the target car's taking a strange route.
19:08No, it's not mine.
19:10It's right, right, right.
19:11It's Glead Road.
19:14Left, left, left.
19:16He's definitely testing them.
19:19And in the lead unmarked...
19:21I think he's going to be aware of us, mate.
19:24They decide to light the Audi up and gamble that their wanted man is inside.
19:28Box on.
19:29But is this their man?
19:30And is he armed?
19:31Show me light!
19:32Show me light now on the ground!
19:33Show me light!
19:34It's him and he's run for it.
19:35There are too many cops for an escape.
19:36Get out of the front!
19:37You wouldn't do a rest!
19:38But he's not giving up without a fight.
19:40Help this out!
19:41Help this out!
19:42Help this out!
19:43Help this out!
19:44Help this out!
19:45It's him and he's run for it.
19:48There are too many cops for an escape.
19:50Get out of the front!
19:52You wouldn't do a rest!
19:53But he's not giving up without a fight.
19:56I'm out! I'm out!
19:58Do you have yourself, relax?
20:00Do you want me to do sex? Do you want me to do sex?
20:02Why are you doing this? Put your hands up.
20:03What are you doing now? What's that for?
20:06What's that for? Relax.
20:08I've got his hand.
20:09I've got him.
20:10Whoa!
20:11Get your batten out.
20:12Whoa!
20:13Why are you doing this?
20:15Put it under his arm.
20:16Why are you doing this?
20:17I've got it.
20:18Release your hand.
20:19Release your hand.
20:21Whoa!
20:22What? Do you want to see what I've got?
20:25Release your hand.
20:26Given the swords, machete and potentially live firearm at his house...
20:31I don't want to see what I've got!
20:32..that's a threat they take seriously.
20:34He's saying he's got hold of something.
20:35What have you got on you, chap?
20:37Nothing.
20:38Why did you just say you don't want to see what you've got?
20:40OK.
20:41Stand you up, buddy.
20:42He's pretty wound up.
20:43Deep breath. Calm down, yeah?
20:45..and not coming quietly.
20:47Argh!
20:48Your wrist!
20:49Please! Argh! Get off me!
20:50Just stop with the wrist, sir!
20:53I've bent over, just stop with the wrist!
20:55OK.
20:56Jesus!
20:57Stop with the wrist!
20:58Just like that.
20:59I'm trying, just stop with the wrist!
21:02Whoo!
21:04Try it, can we...
21:04Whoo!
21:05Whoo!
21:07Whoo!
21:08While they wait for transport to the Nick,
21:11Tony leads the search of the suspect and his car,
21:14which turns up a large amount of cash and...
21:18There's a pot of white powder in a bag that we had as well, so...
21:22Yeah, what? What a powder!
21:23..a pot of white powder.
21:25Where's that then?
21:26Where is it? Where was it?
21:28What are you on about? I haven't got anything!
21:29Where was that found? What are you on about? What powder?
21:32In the car, mate.
21:32Where?
21:33I haven't got any powder, that's not mine!
21:37This pot that's, er, just full of white powder,
21:41it could work with just baking soda, but...
21:43It's like carbonate or soda, isn't it?
21:44Is it?
21:45OK, yeah.
21:46This ends up in the pot, for God's sake.
21:47Oh, I know that.
21:48What, you been doing some baking?
21:49Yeah, actually.
21:50HE LAUGHS
21:51He claims it's baking soda,
21:52but Tony won't take his word for that.
21:55I've got a T-shirt that says awesome,
21:57but it doesn't mean I am, though.
21:58Don't do yourself down, TP.
22:00You've done an awesome search.
22:03Down by the driver's seat,
22:06we've found this locking knife, incredibly dangerous.
22:10There's a blade to go with the baking soda,
22:12but it doesn't look like one you'd cut a Victoria sponge with.
22:15Looks like there's some remnants of white powder on the blade as well,
22:17which probably tells its own story.
22:19Incredibly dangerous in the wrong hands.
22:21Whatever his motive was, it's illegal, per se.
22:23He shouldn't have had it, so he's got some questions to answer.
22:26And he still does.
22:29No further action was taken regarding guns found at his address,
22:33which turned out not to be viable firearms.
22:37After pleading guilty to drug driving,
22:40he was banned from the roads for 14 months and fined £120.
22:45He's under investigation for possession of a bladed article.
22:49He may also have to answer for the powder,
22:51which is currently at the lab,
22:52to confirm tests in the field, which suggested it's cocaine.
22:58Let's see it in the back, mate.
22:58Yeah. All right.
22:59Can we sit the door up? Just I'm sweating, look, that's all.
23:02The air-con's on, mate.
23:06Coming up, when two become one, nothing can tear them apart.
23:10It's got no traction.
23:12Flippin' heck.
23:14A disc-wall driver doesn't learn his lesson.
23:17You're really going to struggle to get your license to fatter after this one.
23:20And a very near miss...
23:23Shit!
23:24...sets Bomber off.
23:26Bloody hell.
23:27Blow, blow, blow, blow, blow, blow.
23:43A typical year sees more than 40,000 people convicted for drink or drug driving in the UK.
23:49And you're currently under arrest on suspicion of driving a motor vehicle
23:53whilst over the prescribed limit of alcohol.
23:56And interceptors block up all sorts.
23:58We'll get you down to custody.
24:00The quiet ones.
24:02Right.
24:03It's because you've been involved in a collision enough
24:05to put you on a breath test and a drug test as well,
24:07just to make sure that's all fine.
24:08The wired ones.
24:09It shows that it's testing positive for cocaine.
24:13Officer's done!
24:14Officer's done!
24:15Officer's done!
24:16And the totally vile ones.
24:18Oh, my God.
24:21I hate being spat at.
24:28Some of them are completely hands up,
24:32I've been caught,
24:34no arguments.
24:36And then there's the others that are aggressive
24:38and argumentative.
24:42But over the years,
24:45you kind of develop a way of dealing with these people.
24:56Even small amounts of alcohol impair judgment,
25:00which is bad news
25:01if you're sharing the road with a drink driver.
25:03Well, good news if you're trying to spot one.
25:15Lightly invested in this red one.
25:19It's almost four in the morning,
25:20but the driver of the rave-mobile
25:22that just passed Callum and Stewart
25:24doesn't believe in quiet time.
25:26Oh, it's got some tunes on.
25:36The car's only insured to a woman.
25:42That's a bonus.
25:43He stopped at the red line.
25:46I can't even see it.
25:47It's so bloody dark.
25:48And given the cops are in the unmarked,
25:53it's unlikely Mrs. Raven knows she's being followed.
25:59We'll have a chat.
26:01She does now.
26:03And as the mobile boombox pulls up,
26:06it's time to see what she has to say for herself.
26:10Yeah, we'll have a chat.
26:11Whatever ravey lady's saying,
26:23she's saying it somewhere else
26:24because she's certainly not at the wheel.
26:27Yeah, good.
26:29Just routine traffic stop.
26:31The only reason why we're questioning it
26:33is when we've run your car through,
26:35come back on the insurance.
26:39Your mother.
26:40Have you got insurance?
26:42Not going to lie, I have not.
26:44You haven't?
26:45No.
26:45Why are you driving then?
26:47Yeah, stupid reason.
26:48Is it?
26:49Well, it's stupid for driving.
26:51Not going to lie to you.
26:52Yeah.
26:53You can't fault the lad's honesty.
26:56You've got your driving licence on you?
26:58I've not.
26:59I've got a provisional.
27:00You've got a provisional?
27:01Yes, I'm not going to lie to you.
27:04He's fessed up to two offences in under 20 seconds
27:07and Stewart reckons there could be a third.
27:09Have you taken anything tonight?
27:12Because your eyes are like spaced.
27:15No.
27:16I'll take you on a drug test, mate.
27:17OK.
27:17Yeah, close, mate.
27:18You've got your keys?
27:20Yeah.
27:20His eyes look ripe for raving
27:22and he really isn't with it.
27:23All right.
27:24So, can you just stick your tongue out for me, bud?
27:26And his tongue control isn't up to much either.
27:28All the way.
27:31Just leave it out.
27:32Don't curl it at the end.
27:33It's weird.
27:33All the way out.
27:36But don't curl it.
27:37That's it.
27:37After a meandering gathering of saliva...
27:40..and a short wait,
27:43the driver miraculously passes the drug wipe.
27:47Yeah, he's passed the drugs test.
27:49But Callum is convinced he's under the influence of something.
27:52Have you drank anything in the last 20 minutes?
27:54I had a bottle of Moretti, but that's it.
27:58How long ago?
28:00Half hour ago.
28:01How big a bottle are we talking?
28:02I don't know what size, between 30 mil.
28:05One small bottle of beer
28:07shouldn't put him over the drink drive limit.
28:10OK.
28:11No problem.
28:11Go for it.
28:12Which is 35 on a breathalyser.
28:20Yeah, so you've failed.
28:22OK.
28:22So, at this time, it's 03.52,
28:27currently under arrest for driving a motor vehicle on a road
28:30whilst over the prescribed limit
28:32for driving with a provisional driving licence
28:35and driving with no insurance.
28:37OK?
28:38DJ Moretti has blown 57,
28:41more than one and a half times the legal limit.
28:43And the hits just keep on coming.
28:46Nathan?
28:47Yes, mate?
28:48So, you're disqualified from driving.
28:49So, you're further under arrest
28:52for driving whilst disqualified, OK?
28:55You're still under caution.
28:58You're really going to struggle
28:59to get your licence back after this one.
29:02He's been busted for driving without a licence before
29:04and clearly didn't learn his lesson.
29:08Yeah?
29:09In that Volvo?
29:10In the Volvo.
29:10Yeah.
29:11Comfier.
29:11So, he's off for a night of luxury
29:13at the Northampton Hilton.
29:15Jump in there for me.
29:17No problem.
29:18And then pull your seatbelt on for us.
29:20No problem.
29:21While Stuart chaperones the drink driver
29:23to face the music,
29:26Callum sees the rowdy Audi
29:27that gave him away safely onto the recovery truck.
29:34The lad's sorry evening went from bad to worse
29:37when in custody he blew even higher,
29:40hitting 66 on the evidential breath machine.
29:42Raver pleaded guilty to drink driving
29:46and driving without a licence or insurance.
29:49He was given a community order,
29:51ordered to pay £200 in fines
29:53and was banned for a further 20 months.
29:56Anything but music to his ears.
30:03Intoxicated drivers don't come more compliant
30:06than Callum's music lover.
30:09And the law of averages says
30:10the next one will be very different.
30:12A 999 call reports a driver
30:26sitting in his car after an alleged crash.
30:29The caller suspects he's under the influence.
30:34Callum's trained in taser,
30:36public order and riot van response.
30:39But he still prefers to be double crewed
30:41for potential drink or drug drivers.
30:50And as he and wingman Tom braved the rain,
30:53it's clear this isn't a night to be short-handed.
30:57The car's almost in the live lane of the A45
30:59and the visibility is shocking.
31:04Are you all right?
31:05Yeah.
31:07You sure?
31:08Yeah, I'm sure.
31:08He's trying to run.
31:10Stay there.
31:11Stay there.
31:12Stay there!
31:13And he's run straight into Tom.
31:15Please don't stop the taser.
31:16Stay where you are!
31:17They're wrestling by a main road
31:19and Callum has to act fast.
31:21Tom, go off.
31:21Tom, go off.
31:22Stay where you are!
31:26The driver's been hit with 50,000 bolts.
31:29Give me your hands.
31:30Give me your hands.
31:31Relax.
31:31But he's still struggling.
31:32Get me cuffs.
31:33Get me cuffs.
31:34Takes another shot from the taser.
31:37Relax.
31:38Let go.
31:41Give me your hands now.
31:42Give me your hands now.
31:43A third hit of the taser still hasn't stopped him.
31:46And they need options.
31:48Tom, if you need to, just spray him, mate.
31:49I don't want to keep zapping him.
31:50They can't let him struggle so close to live traffic,
31:53so Tom unloads a can of Parva spray in his face.
31:57Put your hands out now.
31:59Put your hands out now.
32:006-1.
32:01Mail's been tasered and sprayed.
32:02Can we get another unit, please?
32:03But incredibly...
32:05Give me your hand now!
32:06He's still not compliant.
32:08Tom, I'm going to come in with you, mate.
32:09Yeah.
32:09Holstering his taser, Callum doubles the manpower.
32:12I've got one cuff on.
32:14Just can't get this hand on.
32:15And after a titanic three-man struggle...
32:18Give me your hand now.
32:19..they use a second pair of cuffs.
32:22Let me get my cuffs out.
32:26Link the pairs together...
32:28..and he's detained.
32:32Finally storing cuffs.
32:34Well, over on your side.
32:36Where's his probes gone?
32:38Callum needs to retrieve the probes of his taser,
32:40which has never seen so much action.
32:42Right, you're under arrest on suspicion of driving
32:44whilst unfit through drink or drugs, all right?
32:46Most importantly, no-one was bundled into oncoming traffic
32:50and no-one is seriously injured.
32:52You OK?
32:52Yeah, I'm good, mate.
32:53Yeah.
32:53You all right?
32:54Yeah, yeah.
32:54But the driver won't forget this in a hurry.
32:57You've been tasered, OK?
32:59So, you might feel a little bit dizzy, OK, but just relax
33:05and we'll look after you, all right?
33:08A taser generally incapacitates someone instantly.
33:11The hits he took suggest he may be under the influence of something.
33:16He's wired.
33:17Yeah, yeah, literally.
33:18It's off his face, isn't it?
33:19I need a drink, please.
33:20Well, I can't get you a drink at the moment, can you?
33:23Just stop struggling and relax, all right?
33:25Are you still struggling on the floor?
33:27Get me a drink.
33:28He's apparently got a rye beaner on the front seat.
33:31I need my drink.
33:33You're not having a drink at the moment
33:34because we're in the middle of the A45.
33:37Ah, please, a rye beaner.
33:40I need a drink.
33:42Not at the moment.
33:42The live wire who legged it by the live lane
33:48was convicted of assaulting a cop
33:50and driving under the influence of drugs
33:53after his bloods came back positive for cocaine.
33:57Should have stuck to his rye beaner.
34:03Coming up, none of the cars are going to be drivable,
34:06but one of them's certainly significantly damaged.
34:10Seconds from disaster.
34:12Where were you literally walking down to get into it?
34:18And is this the work of the town dog snatcher?
34:21Someone's just come into my back garden.
34:24OK, stolen my dog.
34:25Obviously, this direction impacted
34:39with the rear offside of this vehicle.
34:43You might think in a parked car or on your own driveway
34:46you'd be safe from other motorists.
34:49You'd be wrong.
34:51Like, I wasn't going that fast at all.
34:53People do mount curbs.
34:57We've had it where people have ploughed into groups of children.
35:04We had one very recently
35:06where four school kids were knocked over.
35:12And that was because they were driving recklessly.
35:15People make split-second but stupid decisions.
35:20It's a wet winter night.
35:26Bomber and Rob are blue-lighting
35:27to the possible location of a stolen car.
35:31The chap who owns the car...
35:33He's got a set of keys,
35:37but he thinks he may have left a set of keys
35:39in the backpack inside it.
35:41The hot motor has been spotted on the other side of town,
35:44and Bomber is doing his best
35:46to navigate treacherous conditions at a sensible speed.
35:51And to make things even more treacherous,
35:53a driver's panicked at approaching blue lights
35:56and stopped dead in the middle of the carriageway.
36:00Shit!
36:01Christ almighty!
36:02You need the almighty on your side on a night like this,
36:08even if you are an advanced driver
36:10and a TPAC specialist like Bomber.
36:13I mean, it just completely stopped.
36:16And as they swap a wet dual carriageway
36:19for slippery roads on the outskirts,
36:21it seems not every driver has the Lord on their side.
36:23The stolen car will have to wait.
36:32Romeo, Papa, 6-4.
36:36You jump down, mate.
36:37Yeah.
36:40We've just come across some sort of RTC.
36:45Because Bomber and Rob have stumbled on the scene of a major crash.
36:49First of all, was anyone injured?
36:51And it looks like the van driver,
36:52who'd just ploughed into a parked car...
36:54So he was the only actual person involved in it?
36:57..has done one.
36:58Did you actually see him or interact with the bloke?
37:01No, no. Right, OK.
37:02The shunt caused by the initial impact
37:04has damaged two more cars.
37:06None of the cars are going to be drivable,
37:08but one of them's certainly significantly damaged.
37:13And its owners were seconds away from disaster.
37:15Where were you?
37:18Literally.
37:20Walking down to get into it.
37:21They were about to climb aboard
37:23and witness the whole thing.
37:26This van's coming down.
37:28The feeding.
37:29Yeah, yeah.
37:29There was this tremendous banners
37:30and it spun round.
37:32Yeah.
37:32Well, luckily you weren't in it.
37:34It looks like God was smiling on them tonight.
37:36Where had you been?
37:38And there may be a good reason why.
37:39Just been a bit of a church.
37:40Oh.
37:41The gentleman is actually a man of the cloth
37:45and the reverend owes the man upstairs a thank you in tonight's prayers.
37:49Yeah, it's just fortunate we weren't in it or getting into it.
37:52Yeah.
37:53But it's going to take almighty forgiveness
37:55to absolve the man from the van
37:57who was far from Christian and bailed.
37:59Drive, got out and walked off.
38:01And he was just gone, wasn't he?
38:02Yeah, just gone.
38:03Like, just like that.
38:05He was heard.
38:06A surge of the crumpled van offers up some clues
38:08as to why he went just like that.
38:11It stinks.
38:13There's cans and weed deal bags and all sorts in there.
38:17There are empty tinnies in the cab
38:18plus some empty deal bags marked with cannabis leaves.
38:22I suspect, though, we were probably intoxicated in some way.
38:25Right.
38:25Which is why they've legged it.
38:27So, and what normally happens is we'll go round,
38:30knock on the door, we won't get a reply,
38:32and then two or three hours later they'll report it stolen.
38:36So.
38:37But we know what happened.
38:41The van's registered owner
38:42can expect a visit from the interceptors very soon.
38:45They'll probably drag that straight on
38:47and that one they'll drag on as well.
38:49In the meantime...
38:50..there's the little matter of clearing the mess
38:55that he left behind.
38:56You're making no progress there, mate.
38:59Which is proving easier said than done for the recovery guy.
39:02It's literally embedded into it.
39:04The impact of the shunt has fused two cars into one.
39:08I might just move back a bit, could you?
39:10Yeah.
39:10And the star-crossed hatchbacks don't want to let go.
39:16Let that go off.
39:17They can't go on the truck in one piece,
39:20so with a copper in one car and recovery guy in another...
39:23Hold tight.
39:24They try again to part the inseparable.
39:29It's got no traction.
39:31Flipping heck.
39:32In the end, a bit of brute force...
39:35..a bit of pressure from the front...
39:38Oh, that's got it.
39:46That looks like it might have it.
39:48And...
39:49There you go.
39:50...the embrace is broken.
39:54As are the tragic hatchbacks.
39:56It's pretty clear now that the vanishing van man
39:59has managed to write off three cars.
40:01Here we are.
40:03Expert driving for you.
40:06The cops caught up with the van's registered owner,
40:08who confessed that he was indeed the expert driver
40:12who ploughed into the parked cars.
40:14No action was taken regarding allegations of drug or drink driving,
40:18but van man was found guilty of failing to stop at an accident
40:22and received a six-month driving ban
40:25and ordered to pay £540 in fines.
40:29God willing, he'll learn his lesson.
40:32Nice evening turning to a terrible one, I suppose.
40:35Could be worse.
40:36Was he a rep room, was he?
40:39Yeah, he was.
40:54It's Saturday, and Rob and Charlie are together again.
40:58We're crewed together a little bit.
41:01We like to have a laugh, which I think has then...
41:03meant that we've managed to get the nickname of the Chuckle Brothers.
41:08I don't mind it, to be fair.
41:11Do you mind it?
41:11No.
41:12No.
41:14This afternoon, the Chuckle Brothers are patrolling an estate
41:17and discussing horticulture.
41:20How big's the garden?
41:21Beautiful.
41:21Decent.
41:22Is it bigger than the one you've got now?
41:23Yeah.
41:23When they spot a distraught figure...
41:26Do you reckon he's coming?
41:26Oh, he is. He's waved.
41:28Go on.
41:28Hello!
41:29Someone's just come into my back garden.
41:34OK.
41:35Stolen my dog.
41:36Dog thefts have skyrocketed in recent years,
41:38with some of the most commonly stolen breeds
41:40being bulldogs, chihuahuas and Yorkshire Terriers.
41:44What do they look... What's the dog look like?
41:46It's a black Yorkshire Terrier.
41:47Hang on, a black Yorkshire Terrier.
41:49Yeah.
41:49Small enough to carry.
41:50Yeah.
41:51This is where a copper's observational superpowers kick in.
41:58Because Rob and Charlie remember seeing a couple
42:00carrying a small dog on the opposite side of the estate.
42:07Phone nines and tell us.
42:11Leaving the anxious owner to phone 999,
42:13Charlie gets his foot down.
42:16Where are they going to go?
42:17Where are they going to have gone?
42:19I don't know.
42:20Rob needs to circulate a description of the missing pet.
42:23One-one, can you hear me?
42:25But before he can...
42:27There they are. It's those two.
42:29..they pass a couple with a dog
42:31and double back via the roundabout to investigate.
42:34One-one, we're opposite the race course.
42:37A member of public has flagged us down
42:39because they said they've just had someone jump in their back garden
42:41and steal their dog,
42:43of which they've given a description
42:45that we thought walked past us on the way in.
42:48I've told them to phone because we've gone on an area search,
42:52but I think we might be with them.
42:56Hello.
42:58But this pair didn't swipe the dog.
43:01We found him!
43:02Where?
43:04Just down the road.
43:05They found him in the road
43:06and are trying to return him to the address on his collar.
43:10Oh, bless!
43:11What's in that?
43:12I thought, well, if that's OK.
43:13Was it just down the road, you said?
43:14Yeah.
43:15I was going to say, I think we've probably just come to him
43:17because we were round the back.
43:18Oh, OK.
43:18The owner's front door is all the way on this side of the estate.
43:23But he didn't answer because he was out back with the cops.
43:26I think that's probably because he was just out back having a chat with us.
43:29And he's worried sick.
43:31Very cute and soft.
43:33I'm nervous.
43:34Yeah.
43:35I know, we'll get you home in a second.
43:36Luckily, it isn't far to travel for a reunion.
43:39Oh, I see.
43:40Did they ring because they lost their dog?
43:41We were just driving round there and he flagged us down.
43:44And this time, the dog's owner answers his front door.
43:47The dog was running in the road, so they've picked him up.
43:51My God.
43:53How's that for dogged detective work?
43:55I think that's what you call right place, right time.
43:58All's well that ends well, really, isn't it?
44:00Yeah.
44:01Short but sweet.
44:02Short but sweet.
44:03The gate had flown open.
44:05Oh, the gate had flown open.
44:07No-one's quite taken his dog,
44:09but that's probably the first thing that runs in your head, isn't it,
44:11when your dog's suddenly gone from the garden.
44:14Faulty gate.
44:15Luckily, we remember seeing a doggy.
44:18Quick turnaround.
44:19Exactly.
44:20Didn't even have to say any words to anyone, handcuff anyone, nothing.
44:24No.
44:24And the dog's been returned.
44:25Let's go and tell off that gulp for his plate.
44:28Oh, okie dokie.
44:29Let's go and tell a gulp off.
44:30Why am I coming this side?
44:31Get away from my door.
44:32Sorry.
44:33It's Paul and Barry chuckle in the flesh.
44:36Sorry, Barry.
44:37All right, Paul.
44:39And the Interceptors are back next Monday at 8.
44:46All bets are off for some street races in Derby
44:49when the traffic cops show up
44:50as the new series continues Wednesday at 8.
44:53Coming up, can Anne get her boys in line to save the family fortune?
44:58The penultimate episode of The Foresights is brand new next.
45:09See you next time.
