Three people have been arrested and another three people taken to hospital after a high speed chase in Longford town on Saturday night.
Gardaí were patrolling the town when they attempted to stop a car, and when it failed to do so they followed it at speed.
The car left the scene and crashed at Goshen cross outside the town.
Two men in their mid-20’s and another juvenile were taken to Mullingar hospital where they were treated for minor injuries.
Two women and another young person were arrested, but were later released without charge.
A file is being prepared for the Department of Public Prosecutions and gardaí say the matter is still under investigation.
