Fast-acting cops responding to concerns about a man ‘freezing to death’ in a field in Ravenshead get an icy reception in tonight’s brand new episode of Police Interceptors.

The race is on to find the man after he went missing walking home from a pub in sub-zero temperatures.

While searching an area in the village, officers came across a car which had crashed into a ditch at the side of the A60 Nottingham Road.

The missing man was found inside, during the cold early hours of 15 January, and immediately turned frosty towards the officers.

He refused to get out of the car and repeatedly refused to provide a breath specimen which resulted in his swift arrest.

A 41-year-old man was subsequently charged and pleaded guilty to failing to provide a specimen for analysis.

He was given a 12-month community order and ordered to carry out 120 hours’ unpaid work. He was also handed a six-month driving ban.

Meanwhile on tonight’s show Police Interceptor vehicles are attacked after following a vehicle believed to be linked to criminality and a runaway car witnessed to be driven dangerously reverse rams into the front another police vehicle at speed, causing extensive damage.

Catch all this and more on Channel 5 at 8pm.
