North Yorkshire police are appealing for information after a number of items were discarded from a vehicle which made off from officers.

A VW Golf on the A61 at Ripley failed to stop on Tuesday.

A 17-year-old boy, an 18-year-old man and a 20-year-old man were arrested in connection with the incident.

Police said: "At 1.45pm (Tuesday 19 March 2024) officers from our Operational Support Unit attempted to stop a VW Golf on the A61 at Ripley. The vehicle made off at speed and it was pursued through the villages of Bedlam, Bishop Thornton and Shaw Mills before it eventually came to a stop on a country lane in Markington."
