A man has been arrested after a suspected stolen car crashed during a police chase, forcing a part of the M62 to shut.

Drivers faced delays after the eastbound carriageway in West Yorkshire closed between junction 26, near Cleckheaton, and junction 27, near Birstall, on Saturday following the multi-vehicle collision, which involved police tactical unit cars.

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said it responded to reports of a vehicle theft on Wilson Avenue, Swinton, at about 10:30 GMT.

An 18-year-old man remains in custody on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle, the force has said.

The car was spotted by the National Police Air Service (NPAS) on the M60 in Manchester and chased onto the M62, where it crashed with GMP's vehicles.

A member of the public was taken to hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-changing.

A GMP spokesman said: "The driver failed to stop for officers, prompting a pursuit which continued onto the M62, with assistance from West Yorkshire Police.

"Between junctions 26 and 27 of the M62, the vehicle collided with GMP tactical aid unit vehicles, causing damage to the police vehicles."

National Highways said the M62 later reopened shortly after 15:30.
