Two men who stole goods from a warehouse in Aylesbury were arrested after crashing a car while being pursued by police.
The arrests took place as part of an operation to tackle retail crime in the Broadfields area of the town on Friday October 23.
Thames Valley Police reported how two suspects stole “a quantity of goods” from a retailer’s warehouse, before making off in a vehicle.
Police said while they were pursuing the vehicle it crashed, and two men were arrested, with both men being charged with burglary and remanded in custody.
One suspect was also charged with dangerous driving, driving whilst disqualified and driving without insurance, while all stolen goods were recovered.
The arrests took place after a day which saw officers from the Aylesbury neighbourhood police team carry out a plain clothes operation in the Broadfields area, during which they dealt with several incidents of shoplifting.
Police said in a statement: “This is a great example of proactive policing delivering results for local businesses and our community.”
