Video shows moment high‑speed Llanelli police chase ends in Felinfoel crash

Dashcam footage from inside a Dyfed‑Powys Police car shows the final moments of the pursuit through the narrow 20mph streets of Felinfoel, with the Kia Sportage reaching 60mph before slamming into a lamppost outside the Royal Oak pub.

The chase happened in the early hours of 7 July this year, just a month after police had first stopped the same driver – 31‑year‑old Perry Dyson, of Brynlluan, Gorslas – in Llanelli’s Parc Trostre retail park.

First arrest in June

Swansea Crown Court heard officers stopped the Kia at Parc Trostre on 7 June. Dyson, who was disqualified from driving, gave a false name and tested positive for cocaine. He later admitted taking the drug earlier that day. The car belonged to his ex‑partner.

A blood sample was taken before Dyson answered “no comment” in interview and was released on bail.

Breach of restraining order and 3am visit

A month later, Dyson breached a restraining order by knocking on his ex‑partner’s door at 3am. Out of fear, she handed over her car keys and phone.

Shortly afterwards, police spotted the Kia and a pursuit began through Llanelli. Dyson hit speeds of more than 70mph in residential areas, overtook other vehicles and forced oncoming drivers to take evasive action.

The pursuit ended when he lost control and crashed outside the Royal Oak. Arrested at the scene, Dyson told officers he had taken the car to buy drugs. He again tested positive for cocaine at the roadside but refused to give a blood sample in custody.

Court: ‘Chance after chance’

Dyson admitted two counts of driving while disqualified, two counts of driving without insurance, dangerous driving, failing to provide a specimen, and breaching a restraining order.

He has previous convictions for offences including common assault, drug possession, failing to provide a specimen, and coercive or controlling behaviour – for which he received a suspended sentence in February this year.

Judge Huw Rees told him: “The courts have given you chance after chance… people in Llanelli would be well pleased if you were kept in custody.” But, after reading letters from Dyson and prison staff, he imposed a 24‑month prison sentence suspended for 18 months.

Dyson must complete an accredited programme, a rehabilitation course, a drug rehabilitation requirement, and 200 hours of unpaid work. He was banned from driving for three years and must pass an extended test before regaining his licence.

Police blood test delay criticised

The court also heard the Crown Prosecution Service had been waiting since 1 August for Dyfed‑Powys Police to provide the results of Dyson’s June blood test. Judge Rees said he would direct police to write to him personally to explain the delay, warning he would “take further action” if they failed to respond.

A police pursuit this evening as I was walking home on New North Road near the Mt Albert Pak'n'Save. First one of those bulky and normally lethargic family SUVs at dangerously (and surprisingly) high speed and trailing a little blue smoke, then half a minute later two cop cars together, with lights and sirens.

One is never sure whether to side with the cops or the fugitives.
