A brave police dog has helped catch a suspect who made off from a vehicle stopped in Carlton on Saturday.
PD Rocket found the suspect lying in a hedge in a back garden in Carlton.
He and his handler had been called in after a suspect fled from the passenger seat of a car in Standhill Road at about 730pm.
Officers lost sight of him as he jumped over fences, but he was unable to escape the attentions of PD Rocket.
On that occasion, a 19-year-old man arrested on suspicion of assault and possessing cannabis.
Sergeant Nicholas Dachtler, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Our general-purpose police dogs are trained to use their noses and their immense speed to bring suspects to heel and to keep the public safe.
“The dog and their handler did an outstanding job to bring these skills to bear and all should be proud of their actions.”
