A TAXI driver helped two police officers make an arrest.

A wanted man was spotted by two Brighouse police officers last weekend.

The man ran away from the officers and the police duo gave chase and called for back-up.

Two other beat bobbies, hearing their call for help, flagged down a local taxi driver who drove them to the scene.

The man was located hiding in thick bramble bushes near the Lightcliffe Road quarry and was arrested.
