We are appealing for witnesses and dash cam footage after a vehicle drove the wrong way on the A27 in the early hours of this morning (October 30).
The incident occurred around 3.45am today, when a black Citroen Berlingo failed to stop on the M27, near junction 12, for police.
Having left the A27 at the exit for Emsworth, the vehicle then returned but drove east on the westbound carriageway before being abandoned at the BP service station.
A search of the area was conducted, but the occupants of the vehicle were not located.
Enquiries are ongoing to understand the exact circumstances.
While we know traffic on the road at this time would have been limited, we are keen to hear from anyone who saw the Berlingo driving the wrong way on the A27.
In particular, we would like to speak to anyone with dash-cam footage.
Anyone with information should call 101, quoting the reference 44240468739.
