West Yorkshire Chief Constable Sir Norman Bettison was involved in a dramatic arrest during a visit to Brighouse.
Sir Norman was in the town to pay a courtesy call to traders' organisation Brighouse Shopwatch. As chairman of the group, Gail Subham, demonstrated to the chief how the stores' early warning radio system worked, it alerted police to a disturbance in nearby Sainsbury's supermarket car park.
Sir Norman and two uniformed PCs dashed to the scene, broke up the disturbance and chased a man believed to have been involved in the incident.
The man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly.
