Watch the moment police chase down a stolen quadbike engulfed in flames.
Dashcam footage from Durham Police shows Steven Johnstone, who stole the bike from a farm garage, trying to outrun them as the vehicle erupts into a fireball.
He incredibly continues to drive before crashing the burning bike into a bush.
Officers tackle him to the ground, with one telling him: “Absolutely astounded how stupid you’ve just been there.
“You are so lucky that did not blow you to smithereens.”
