A stolen Audi S5 hit 140 mph and still couldn’t lose the police. Officers used two BMW estates and an X5 to stay on the S5. V8 coupe rammed a police Q7 and briefly slipped away damaged. Police in the UK have released terrifying footage capturing the high-speed chase of a 17-year-old male driver behind the wheel of an Audi S5. It shows that no matter how skilled you may think you are at driving, or how powerful your car is, attempting to flee from police is always a losing move. The chase unfolded on June 29 when police were alerted to a stolen Audi S5 speeding through local roads. Footage captured from the onboard cameras of local police units shows the moment the stolen black Audi first came into view, speeding through a large roundabout. Police quickly gave chase, initially using a pair of BMW 3-Series estates and a BMW X5 SUV.

Officers stuck close to the rear of the Audi for several minutes as the teenage driver sped through small towns, hitting upwards of 140 mph (225 km/h). At one stage, an officer was able to place their Audi Q7 cruiser in front of the S5 and attempted to force it to a stop. However, as the police braked, the S5 slammed into the rear of the SUV and managed to escape, although the two-door Coupe did suffer damage at the right front, with smoke seen billowing out from the car. Eventually, police were able to box the S5 in and force it to a stop. They quickly pounced on the driver and passenger, smashing the side windows and pulling them out from the car. While searching the S5 immediately after the arrest, police found the keys to at least two other Audis, a Ford, a Mercedes, and a BMW, all with house keys attached, indicating they may have been stolen. The young Audi driver has pleaded guilty to a range of offenses including dangerous driving and burglary. They will be sentenced in October. Screenshots via Durham Constabulary
