Three men have been arrested after a car suspected of being "involved in violent burglaries" crashed at a petrol station.

A stolen BMW X6 overturned at the Shell garage on the A1 at Buckden, Cambridgeshire at about 04:30 GMT on Thursday, after failing to stop.

Police from the BCH Road Policing Unit were chasing the car as it travelled south from Lincolnshire.

They said they were "not advanced drivers".

Officers said it was believed the suspected burglaries took place in Nottinghamshire.
