Explained simply
Sheffield is a city in South Yorkshire, where South Yorkshire Police are responsible for policing. Officers can use helicopters to help track vehicles and people across a wider area, particularly when a pursuit moves through busy streets.
Dangerous driving is a criminal offence, and drug-related offences can include possessing or supplying controlled drugs. An arrest on suspicion of an offence allows police to investigate; it does not mean the person has been charged or found guilty.
