Two care home residents have died after a car crashed into the building following a police chase in Sunderland, Northumbria Police has said.

The crash happened at about 21:40 BST on Wednesday when a blue BMW hit Highcliffe Care Home in Witherwack, causing structural damage.

The vehicle had been reported stolen from the Fenham area of Newcastle earlier that evening, police said.

A woman in her 90s and another in her 80s died on Thursday, and eight other residents were taken to hospital with injuries. Two men aged 21 have been arrested.

Police said the men were previously arrested in connection with the crash but have now been further arrested on suspicion of manslaughter.

Northumbria Police said it would consider whether the crash contributed to the women’s deaths.
