A car has crashed in Margate after refusing to stop for police officers.

Shortly before 2.25pm officers signalled for a car to stop in the Cecil Street area of Margate.

The vehicle did not stop and less than a minute later was involved in a collision with a parked vehicle in Alexandra Road, which has been closed as a result.

Two men who were travelling inside have been arrested and taken to a local hospital as a precaution.

A quantity of drugs has also been seized from the car.
