Watch the moment two Lancashire Police officers deliver takeaway after arresting driver in bizarre incident

This is the moment two Lancashire Police officers were caught on camera delivering a takeaway to a stunned Just Eat customer after arresting the driver.

Two Lancashire Police officers went above and beyond while on duty to complete a takeaway delivery after arresting the original driver for having no insurance.

Caroline Radford, 37, was left stunned when a marked police car pulled up outside her home when she was expecting her food delivery.

Caroline had ordered food from local takeaway Chicken Inn on May 5 and was waiting for the delivery.

But instead of a delivery rider knocking at the door, officers turned up after stopping and arresting the driver.

Determined not to let the order go to waste, the officers stepped in to complete the delivery themselves.

Doorbell footage captured the moment the police vehicle outside Caroline’s house and an officer clutching bags of hot food.

Caroline said she initially feared something serious was unfolding when she heard sirens approaching her street.

Caroline, from Accrington, Lancashire, said: "I had ordered the food from Just Eat and got the notification it was on its way.

"Not long after, I heard sirens getting closer, which is unusual for the area we live in.

"I went into my ring door bell and saw the police flying up the road with blues and twos, pulling in front of my partner's van.

"They jumped out the car so quickly I thought there was on a police chase.

"I went to the bathroom window to see better an they grabbed bags out of the back of the car.

"I said to my partner 'They’ve got our takeaway!'"

The officers then hurried to Caroline’s front door and handed over the order - ensuring her fried chicken arrived hot despite the unexpected drama.
