An 18-year-old man has died after the car he was driving crashed into a wall during a police pursuit in Sheffield city centre.
The man, who was driving a black Ford Fiesta, had reacted to the presence of officers on Hyde Park Walk and had “attempted to flee the scene” at about 13:00 GMT on Monday, according to South Yorkshire Police.
The car, which was believed to have been stolen, then hit a wall on East Bank Road after a short police pursuit and the man was taken to hospital where he later died from his injuries, a force spokesperson said.
Following the crash, the force made a mandatory referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct.
