They remain in custody whilst they are questioned as part of the investigation.

Detective Sergeant Andy Buxton, from Nottinghamshire Police, said: "Officers were quick to react when they spotted a van which they suspected to be stolen.

"Whenever we get reports, or we suspect, that a stolen vehicle is in the area, we will always work quickly to catch up with it and stop it so we can investigate.

"We understand the impact having a vehicle stolen can have on its owners, causing financial loss and leaving them without transport, so we are committed to our investigations where this might be the case.

"Our investigation is ongoing and would urge anyone with information to get in touch on 101, quoting incident 731 of 19 September 2021."
