Burglar jailed after leading police on car chase at ‘colossal speed’
Dramatic police footage has shown a burglar's Audi A5 veering off the side of a road following a high-speed car chase officers said was one of the worst cases of dangerous driving they had witnessed. Patrick Jones, 28, from Liverpool, was jailed for two years at Winchester Crown Court on Thursday after taking part in a series of high-value burglaries at commercial premises across Salisbury and south Wiltshire. He was disqualified from driving for eight years and three months for dangerous driving after leading police officers on a high-speed chase on the A500 in 2018. Sentencing Jones, Judge Andrew Barnett said he "continued to drive at colossal speed", adding it was "an appalling piece of driving, one of the worst cases of driving I've seen".
