Bourne suspect tries to avoid arrest by hiding under water

A man wanted by police after failing to stop for officers tried to avoid arrest by hiding under water in a pond.

Lincolnshire Police said, after refusing to pull over, the suspect dumped his car in Springbank Drive, Bourne, and ran towards a nearby wood on Tuesday night.

A police drone was deployed and picked up his heat source in the pond, allowing officers to locate him.

A force spokesperson said the 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of failing to stop and drug offences.

He was taken into custody to receive medical treatment and later released on bail.
