This is the dramatic moment robbers who raided a cash and carry were arrested while running along a busy motorway after a dramatic chase which saw them ram two police cars. The gang of four were spotted trying to escape along the M42 after they held up a cash-and-carry in Derby on September 26 last year. The white Seat Leon they were travelling in was traced by a police helicopter and today dramatic footage has been released showing the car ramming two police vehicles as they tried to hide under a bridge.

Officers then managed to arrested the four robbers but had to use CS spray when one of the men, John Gourlay, produced a baton and threatened police at the road side. While in custody, the gang were linked to a further 20 offences where thousands of pounds worth of cigarettes were stolen over a three week period. Earlier the gang of four were in a stolen Seat Leon and attempted to flee from police in the vehicle . The gang were unaware they were being followed by an unmarked police car and then stopped under a bridge . Eventually the Seat became boxed in by the police vehicles, with the gang attempting to ram the cars out of the way . The four men were charged with conspiracy to commit robbery in September last year and appeared at Birmingham Crown Court for trial last month. They were all convicted of the charge and three of the gang have now been sentenced to over 30 years in prison. Gourlay, 41, of no fixed address, was jailed for 13 years and three months whilst Anton Richards, 29, of Birmingham, was caged for 11 years. Charlie Johnson, 19, of Birmingham, was jailed for six years but the last member Kyran Rooney, 19, of Yardley, Birmingham will be sentenced on May 7. The court heard how the gang stole a series of cars from addresses in the West Midlands, Warwickshire and Shropshire. John Gourlay, left, has been sentenced to 13 years in prison, and Anton Richards, right, 11 years after the raid on the cash and carry . They used the vehicles as getaway cars in raids on cigarette delivery vans across the Midlands region between August 31 and September 26 last year. The robbers also targeted customers as they left cash and carries, having stocked up their cars with tobacco, cigarettes and alcohol. They were eventually caught when they were spotted travelling on the M42 towards Birmingham in the Seat Leon, which they had stolen from Droitwich in Worcestershire. Speaking after the hearing, Detective Constable Kerri Buckley, of West Midlands Police, said: 'This was a detailed and complex inquiry into a series of raids on delivery vans and customers of cash and carries across the wider Midlands region. 'The cases were first linked when the gang began to target delivery vehicles belonging to one particular company, the series was then connected along with the thefts of the getaway cars and the robberies of shopkeepers going to stock up at cash and carries. 'The volume of offences in such a short space of time is quite shocking and the length of the sentences these men have received is a testament to that, while reflecting on just how organised this criminal network was.'
