Car theft and McDonald’s – a winning combination. 
Except when you get caught.
A CCTV image issued by detectives shows the driver getting ready to make his order in a blue Audi A3, on cloned plates, at the drive-through in  Basildon, Essex.

Police happened to be at the scene and tried to stop the car, which sped  away before crashing into a metal pole in a disabled bay in the  McDonald’s car park.
During the incident, a pedestrian was almost knocked over before the two men got out of the car and ran off.
The Audi A3 is believed to have been stolen from London and officers  from Essex Police are now circulating this CCTV image taken from the fast food restaurant’s drive-through booth.
 
 PC Sam Wayland said: ‘Police tried to stop them there, but they made off from the park.
‘They knocked over a metal post while trying to get away and almost hit a member of the public. We need to find them.
‘Officers did manage to get the car back.’
She has also urged residents in the area to remain on alert after 11  cars were stolen during burglaries in Basildon in the last three weeks.
Police have also so far recorded 43 burglaries in Basildon in the last  19 days.
If you recognise the men in the CCTV image contact Essex Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
