FOUR people were arrested on suspicion of committing driving offences after a car failed to stop for police on the A338 last night.

Dorset Police confirmed the car, a VW Scirocco, failed to stop while travelling northbound around 9pm on Monday.

The car was eventually located on Horton Road, close to the Ashley Heath Roundabout, where officers arrested a 16-year-old Oxford girl on suspicion of driving offences.

However, two hours later police received a report of three people acting suspiciously in the area.

When officers attended they arrested a 17-year-old girl, from Oxford, and two men, aged 18 and 28 and also from the Oxford area, on suspicion of committing driving offences.

All four suspects are currently assisting police with their enquiries
