Wanted man nicked in Bedford after leading police on ‘lengthy foot chase’

A wanted man has been arrested for numerous violent offences after trying to evade capture.

Eagle-eyed officers eyeballed the man on Tavistock Street but he bolted.

According to a post on social media from police, “a lengthy foot chase followed, over fences and walls.”

He was then found hiding in a garage block and was promptly nicked.

One officer said: “We have certainly earned our coffee and doughnuts today.”
