Police have provided an update on arrests following an alleged hit-and-run in Hemlington.

Police attended an incident at 6.30am on Wednesday, April 27, where a man was involved in a collision with a vehicle on Cass House Road.

The vehicle then left the scene after the man in his 20s sustained serious injuries, including a suspected "stab wound."

At the time, police believed there to be two cars involved, one being a silver Ford Focus and another a black Lexus.

A 32-year-old man was arrested following the incident, and Cleveland Police has now provided an update on arrests.

Speaking yesterday, a spokeswoman for Cleveland Police said that the man has been released under investigation while enquiries continue.

The volunteers of the Redcar RNLI lifeboat have been called into action in our area.

Just after twenty past two on Sunday afternoon Redcar's Atlantic 85 lifeboat was launched to assist with a capsized dinghy in the Tees channel.

Following the incident the crew were able to return to base and the lifeboat returned to the lifeboat station.

Police are appealing for information and CCTV footage as they investigate a burglary and car theft reported in Middlesbrough.

The incident was reported to have happened at around 1:30am last Wednesday.

A property in Carlow Street was broken into and during the burglary the victim’s car keys were stolen.

The car, a grey 2019 Vauxhall Insignia, was then driven away from the victim’s property.

Anyone with information, dashcam or private CCTV footage, which may help detectives investigating the incident, including sightings of the grey car around the time of the incident, is asked to contact Cleveland Police on the non-emergency number 101.
