This is the moment a quick-thinking police officer caught a suspected thief by swapping his patrol car for a passerby's bike.
Footage of PC Paddy Connell chasing a stolen Range Rover in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, went viral in April last year.
The suspected thief first attempted to flee in reverse before he managed to speed away and hit speeds of 80mph in a 30mph zone.
The driver finally crashed the £40,000 car into a row of parked cars before scrambling out and clambering over a fence.
PC Connell chased on foot before being helped by a passing cyclist.
