Police, including the dog unit, cordoned off Verbena Road at about 10pm on Wednesday night.

Multiple vehicles were at the scene, while a 4x4 with its hazard lights on and bonnet slightly open was also in the road.

Police said a vehicle initially failed to stop for police on Round House Way, leading to a short pursuit.

It then crashed into a fence on Verbena Road, with the occupant of the car fleeing the scene.

They were later found, and a man in his 30s was taken to Wymondham police investigation centre for questioning.

He was arrested in connection with failing to stop for police, driving with excess drugs, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.

He has since been released under investigation.
