MANCHESTER
A driver was caught on Deansgate with stolen taxi plates on his Ford Mondeo - before he led police on a 20-minute high-speed chase.
Anas Abuhdaima, 26, initially stopped for officers in Manchester city centre after they pulled him over.
He then attempted to flee, leading officers on a 20-minute pursuit in his Ford Mondeo, driving through red lights, on the wrong side of the road, and at speeds of up to 80 miles an hour, Manchester Crown Court heard.
Abuhdaima eventually stopped his car in Fallowfield, but ran from the vehicle and into a garden.
The force helicopter had to be used to track him down, before he was arrested.
Abuhdaima, from Moston, avoided jail.
