Rural crime police officers stopped four suspected coursers who had travelled into the county – sending 4x4 off “for bean tins”.
Police chased the ‘Rusty Rav’ on and off from Ely to Newmarket on Thursday (January 7) before bursting its tyres and bringing it to a stop.
Four occupants – from Kent and Essex – were not only reported for coursing, they were also reported for dangerous driving and COVID breaches.

“Big help for the second day in a row from road policing unit who provided additional stinger and pursuit options for the team.
“The four men from Kent and Essex were reported for dangerous driving, coursing and COVID breaches as well as issued dispersals and community protection warnings.”
