Bizarre incident sees burglar throw 'bag of power tools' at South Yorkshire Police officer during chase
A suspected burglar threw a bag of power tools at a police officer during a chase through the streets.
But the tactic did not deter the determined officer as he eventually caught him and arrested him in Hexthorpe, Doncaster, yesterday evening.
A spokesperson for the Doncaster Central Neighbourhood Policing Team said: "PC Davidson locked eyes with his 33-year-old burglary suspect.
"After a foot chase the male was arrested and suspecting that the bag thrown at him with two power drills in was not an early Christmas present added a theft to the arrest reasons."
