On Sunday 4 October at around 8.30pm, officers responded to reports of a car meet on the A34 at Meaford, near Stone. We were told that more than 50 vehicles had gathered. As a result of police attendance, multiple vehicles left the location.
A short time later, officers received reports that a number of vehicles had gathered at a different location on the A34, near Stafford. When officers went to the scene, a car failed to stop.
With help from the National Police Air Service (NPAS), the vehicle was located and safely stopped. A man was arrested and has since been released under investigation while enquiries continue.

Illegal racing and excessive speed put not only those involved at risk, but also other motorists and other members of the public.
