Three people have been arrested after a crash on the busy A184 in Gateshead on Good Friday morning.

A blue van was being followed by a black BMW before they collided on the slip road at Whitemare Pool.

It's thought the occupant of the BMW then damaged the van, before driving off.

No-one was injured as a result of the incident.

Police have arrested two men, aged 31 and 32, as well as a 30 year old woman.

Officers are keen to hear from anyone who saw what happened, and anyone who may have dash cam footage.
