He was found hiding in a hedge after a search by a police dog handler
A Nottinghamshire Police dog sniffed out a runaway driver moments after he caused a crash. Raheem Rahman, 22, drove away at speed after he was spooked by an unmarked police car travelling Forest Lane, Papplewick, on Friday, July 22.
Several police vehicles were in pursuit during the early hours of the morning, and Mr Rahman passed through a final red light at a junction with the A60. A member of the public driving through the lights then collided with a police car as he swerved to avoid a head-on crash.Rahman then abandoned his Audi and attempted to flee the scene on foot. .
Rahman, of Rolleston Drive, Arnold, answered “no comment” to all the questions put to him during his police interview. However, he later admitted to charges of dangerous driving and failing to stop for the police.
