A teenager was injured after getting trapped between two vehicles following a police chase.
At around 11.30pm on Friday night (2 September), officers were following a Toyota HiAce in Dukinfield that was suspected to have been involved in theft offences.
The vehicle was pursued through Tameside to Openshaw when the driver of the Toyota and his teenage passenger de-camped from the vehicle in Openshaw at around 11:40pm.
