A police chase has ended in chaos after three vehicles crashed on an A-road.
Two teens were injured after a police pursuit ended on the hard shoulder of the A406 Crooked Billet roundabout in Walthamstow, east London.
The crash happened after a car collided with a man on a moped before hitting another car on the busy roundabout shortly before 3pm.
Metropolitan Police said the pursuit was authorised after a car escaped from officers on Cooks Ferry roundabout.
