Manchester Police ‘Collide’ Confiscated Mitsubishi Evo With 2 Front Gardens

[kracken]

IN Manchester, two local policemen who confiscated a yellow Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII in Hale because the owners were driving it erratically…crashed it

The wooden tops saw the 23-year-old driver and suspected him guilty of drink-driving

Traffic police were called and they arrested the man

The two officers then got into the Evo and drove along Hale Road

The policeman drove the car into the gardens of two luxury homes, where it rolled it on to its side

The police spokesman delivers a wonderful summary:

“Following the arrest of the driver, officers drove the vehicle from the scene. The car then collided with two front gardens.”

The front gardens just stepped out without indicating, yer honour.

Neither officer was badly hurt.

But you drivers should take it as a warning that you might not be so lucky. So think on

Officers with Greater Manchester Police’s professional standards unit are investigating.
The officers have been suspended from driving duties “with immediate effect”.

Certainly don't look like they were doing 30Mph and it looks like a built up area

yep no way u roll a car like that at 30mph but no doubt no further action will be taken once the press forget about it - mind u if the guy who it belonged to was drink driving then they should be allowed to smash the fuckers car up anyway.

It says a lot though when the drink driver didnt do any damage but the coppers that took the car totalled a car and two gardens.

Useless cunt....Drink driver or not you've destroyed personal property. And in a way which should see your dumb ass get the boot.

This just compounds my views of the Police force as a whole.

Why were they driving the car anyway, it should of been put on a transporter.

The original officers were left to wait for a recovery truck to pick up the sports car.
While waiting, they appear to have decided to take the 270bhp car - which can do 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds and is electronically limited to 156mph - for a spin.

Thick fuckers. TWOC, Careless/dangerous/DWDCAA, Possibly driving without insurance.

Need the boot, loss of all entitlements (pension etc.) and prosecution along with a driving ban.
