Injured police still in hospital

Two policemen are still in hospital with serious injuries after a collision between a Mitsubishi Evolution and a police car early on Saturday morning.

A 28-year-old man from Great Yarmouth has been released on bail after he was arrested on suspicion of drink driving and failing to stop for police.

The Mitsubishi failed to stop for police in Belvedere Road, Lowestoft.

Four men were injured after it was followed and collided with a marked police car in Tom Crisp Way.

Two passengers from the Mitsubishi have been released from James Paget Hospital in Gorleston in Norfolk and are not facing charges.

The man from Great Yarmouth has been bailed to return to Lowestoft Police Station on 7 March.

The Police Independent Complaints Commission is carrying out an investigation which is routine when people have been injured while being followed.
