Episode 5

This all-action episode begins with reports of suspected lorry looters at a service station in Trowell, and firearms cops Jim and Lewis race to intercept. They arrive to find the stock seemingly abandoned, when nearby a figure bursts from the shadows and legs it into the undergrowth. Dog detectives take the lead on containment, and it's down to police dog Morse and his canine comrade Reno to sniff out the bad guys. Jon and Dan stop a road rage suspect who has allegedly racially abused another driver and threatened them with an axe. The bloke evidently has an axe to grind with the interceptors, too, and this charming encounter unearths more than just a weapon. Déjà vu strikes, as the knife crime team nick a familiar face with a load of suspected cannabis in his mum's motor. The lad claims he uses the stash to whip up cannabis cakes and shakes — so much so the team think he could have set up shop. Meanwhile, there's another reunion in store for Lewis. One year on from a siege in suburbia, where a man fired an imitation pistol towards armed cops, he's made more threats towards police and the hunt is on to lock him up. Finally, having the windows down on a hot summer's day has Matt and Lee following their noses to weed out their next job. High speed, high drama and one hell of a ride. Buckle up for an all-new episode of Police Interceptors.
