Warwickshire teenager charged after dangerous police chase ended in crash
The 19-year-old appeared in Coventry Magistrates Court for his first hearing today.
A teenager from Warwickshire appeared in court today (8 December) after a "dangerous" police chase ended in a crash.
Jack Unsworth, a 19-year-old man from Moat Lane, Kenilworth has been charged with possession with intent to supply cocaine and alprazolam, and dangerous driving.
He has also been charged with possession of an offensive weapon in a public place, driving without insurance, driving not in accordance with a license, and acquisition, use, or possession of criminal property.
This is following an incident on the evening of Wednesday 6 December in which a car reportedly failed to stop for officers.
The car (a Peugeot 408 GT) then allegedly drove in a dangerous manner before being involved in a collision on the A46 near Leaf Lane.
Officers made an arrest and carried out a search of the vehicle, reportedly discovering a large blade, over £3,000 in cash, and a quantity of controlled drugs.
Unsworth is due to appear in Warwick Crown Court on 10 January 2024.
