A car flipped on Ridgeway in Plympton on 3 April, leading to arrests and a road closure.
Emergency services were called just before 9pm after reports of a road traffic collision. Armed police were also sent to the scene.
A grey Volkswagen Golf was found on its side, blocking the road. The airbags had deployed inside the vehicle.

They’ve since been released under investigation while enquiries continue.
