A MAN has been arrested after a police chase ended with a car smashing into another vehicle.

Thames Valley Police said officers were pursuing the car because it had been linked to a series of burglaries.

They were called at 3.42pm yesterday and followed it until it crashed in High Street, Burford, and the three passengers fled the scene.

No one was injured, a police spokesman said this morning. He added one man had later been arrested on suspicion of burglary.

It came as a Marks and Spencer lorry also caused disruption to drivers, after it blocked the main road through the town.
