A car linked to many crimes across West Yorkshire was seized by police today.

The driver of the Peugeot was also arrested after officers from the roads policing unit (RPU) stopped the vehicle in Yeadon.

Police said the car was uninsured and untaxed, while the driver had no licence.

The RPU tweeted a picture of the vehicle, which had sustained some front end damage.

The tweet read: “This vehicle has been involved in many crimes over the West Yorkshire area. We finally got it stopped and the driver arrested. No insurance, licence or tax either.”
