Two arrests were made following a 'lengthy' police pursuit in the early hours of this morning.
Police were alerted to a stolen white BMW which was seen travelling on the A405 at around 4.30am (Wednesday).
The driver failed to stop after police tried to pull the vehicle over.
The BMW was pursued around Watford, Abbots Langley, and Hemel Hempstead, before police say a stinger was used to puncture the car's tyres and bring the pursuit to an end, on the A41 near Leavesden.
