Investigations are continuing after a teenager was arrested for leading police on a huge chase in a 'stolen tractor and trailer'.

Dorset Police received a report last month that a yellow JCB Fastrac tractor with a trailer had been stolen from the Martinstown area.

A spokesperson for Dorset Police: “The arrested boy remains on police bail and our investigation is ongoing.”

Officers were deployed to the area and the vehicle was subsequently seen driving on the A37 north of Dorchester before travelling on a number of rural roads in the Dorchester and Piddle Valley area.

It was reported that the vehicle failed to stop for police on several occasions and continued travelling along roads in the Dorchester area overnight on May 26.

It was subsequently stopped in the area of Bradford Peverell at around 7.45am the following morning and a 14-year-old boy was arrested in connection with the incident.

Superintendent Gavin House, of Dorset Police, previously said: “Officers responded swiftly to this incident and worked overnight to ensure any reported risks to other road users were minimised and the incident was brought to a safe conclusion.

“We are carrying out a full investigation into this matter and I would appeal to any witnesses to the manner of driving of this tractor, and particularly anyone who has captured relevant dashcam footage, to please contact Dorset Police.”
