AN investigation has been launched after a car reportedly sped away from police on a Bradford road.

Police officers from the Steerside Enforcement Team put on their lights to stop a Ford Focus.

The car reportedly sped away from the scene and was found abandoned by police a short time later.

In a post on X, formerly Twitter, the Steerside Enforcement Team said: "This Ford wasn't even the Focus of our attention when we illuminated our blues in the Bolton area of Bradford East last night, but it made off anyway.

"We located it a short time later abandoned and recovered it for further enquiries."
