A 42-year-old man from St Leonards has been arrested after reports of a car driving dangerously.
At around 2.10am on Saturday 24 October, police became aware of a silver Ford Mondeo driving dangerously.
The vehicle was pursued for a short time until it manoeuvred around bollards onto the pedestrianised area of Decimus Burton Way. It then crashed into a lamppost and two other vehicles in nearby Maze Hill, before being abandoned in Quarry Hill.
It was located by Roads Policing Unit officers, who stopped a possible suspect nearby.
Darren Kelly, 42, unemployed, of Kenilworth Road, St Leonards, was subsequently arrested on suspicion of drink-driving, failing to stop when required by police, failing to stop after a road traffic collision, driving while disqualified and driving with no insurance.
He has been released on conditional bail and is due to appear before Hastings Magistrates’ Court on 3 February, charged with these offences.
