Two suspected joyriders have been arrested after crashing into a parked car.

At around 7.30am on Tuesday, October 28, police were called to reports of a black Ford Fiesta mounting kerbs and driving dangerously through a residential area on Saville Street, Macclesfield.

Three men abandoned the vehicle and fled the scene on foot after crashing into a parked car.

Officers swiftly attended and after a search of the area, two teenagers, aged 19 and 15, from the Macclesfield area were arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle.

Detective Sergeant Laura Fox said: "This investigation is in the early stages, however I am sure that these arrests will provide reassurance for residents in the area and the wider community.

"I also hope that it acts as a warning to other offenders who think they can commit crime here in Cheshire.

"As our enquiries continue, I would urge anyone with any information or video footage which may aid our investigation to get in touch."

The teenagers have since been bailed pending further enquiries.
