A nineteen-year-old attempted to escape police by fleeing a car which crashed with a barrier on the M25.

A silver Renault Clio collided with a barrier at Junction 22 near London Colney after police chased the vehicle for alleged dangerous driving on Saturday (22).

An occupant of the vehicle made off on foot near McDonald’s but was later arrested in a nearby field on suspicion of dangerous driving.

He has been bailed until December 4.
