Lewis Collier, 21, was sentenced to two years and two months in prison
Watch the moment a 21-year-old drug dealer is caught by police in a dramatic foot chase which has been compared to a scene from the iconic British comedy film Hot Fuzz.
Lewis Collier was arrested by a police officer in Reading after a theatrical chase through at least eight different gardens.
The drug dealer was caught in April of this year after he apparently injured himself while crashing through a fence.
In body-worn footage released by Thames Valley Police, Collier is seen jumping through several fences across the eight gardens before eventually being apprehended behind a collapsed fence.
Collier is seen attempting to crawl away as the police officer shouts "stop, officer with a taser!"
The 21-year-old was jailed at Oxford Crown Court on Thursday for two years and two months for offences including dangerous driving and intent to supply cannabis.
The Hot Fuzz-style chase began when Thames Valley Police spotted Collier's Audi A6 in Coronation Square.
He then mounted a pavement, hit a car, drove into a pole on South Cut Lane and then fled on foot.
The chase through the gardens started on Hertford Road and ended with him crawling along a path as the breathless officer shouted at him throughout.
Collier pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, possessing a class B drug with intent to supply, and possessing criminal property and criminal damage.
Collier was also convicted of driving without a license or insurance and for failing to stop after a road incident.
His jail term includes 10 months for breaching a previous suspended sentence.
Sharing the body cam footage online, Thames Valley Police declared they will "not tolerate" drug offences in the area.
They said: "Let us be clear: We will not tolerate drug-related offending in Reading.
"We will target and prosecute offenders and our activity will be both visible and covert, aimed at disrupting and pursuing offenders involved in the supply of drugs.
