A Chesterfield man who attempted to escape from officers has been sentenced – and you can watch the moment a police dog chased him down and ended his efforts to flee.

Officers spotted a car travelling at speed in Chesterfield on Friday, May 1. The driver, Nathaniel Devine, of Sheffield Road, Stonegravels, stopped but then refused to speak with officers – before attempting to run away.

PC Shaw and PD Yolo had just arrived at the scene, and despite PC Shaw’s clear direction to stop, the driver tried to test the speed of four-legged colleague. PD Yolo then brought the chase to a swift conclusion.

Devine, 24, appeared at Chesterfield Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, September 17. He pleaded guilty to failure to co-operate with a preliminary test, failure to provide a specimen for analysis and possession of a Class C controlled drug.

Devine was ordered carry out 180 hours of unpaid work, pay a surcharge of £114 and to pay costs to the Crown Prosecution Service of £85.
