Police failings during a 130mph chase involving a stolen BMW did not cause the death of two drivers, an inquest has ruled. The pursuit ended in a double-fatal crash after the fleeing teenage driver headed the wrong way down the motorway and smashed into another car.

Brandon Pryde, also known as Brandon Geasley, was chased by police on the night of May 27, 2021, hitting high speeds on the M60 motorway as he and the pursuing police officer, PC Jennifer Barrow, passed innocent pensioner David Faulker, 77.

Mr Geasley then exited the anti-clockwise carriageway at junction 27, before going round the roundabout and heading back onto the motorway, this time travelling in the wrong direction.

He headed down the outside lane, narrowly avoiding smashing into a police car driving towards the pursuit, before moving into the inside lane where he was involved in a head-on collision with Mr Faulkner as both men attempted to move into the middle lane to avoid each other.
