Ciaran McGuigan, 32 and from Ventry Lane, received a sentence of 3 years and 9 months after pleading guilty to multiple charges, including burglary, attempted burglary, aggravated vehicle taking and assault on police.
Malachy Goodman, 41 and from Ballymurphy Parade, was sentenced to 2 years and 4 months for similar charges – including aggravated vehicle taking and burglary.
Ciaran Tully, 33 and from Divismore Park, received a 12-month sentence for aggravated vehicle taking and possession of a blade in a public place.
The incident took place on November 5 2022, when the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Air Support Unit spotted a stolen BMW in the greater Belfast area.
A high-speed police pursuit followed, with the stolen vehicle driving dangerously through the city, running red lights and mounting pavements.
The vehicle then drove the wrong way up the Westlink, causing major damage to several passing cars and injuries to officers involved in the chase.
The reckless pursuit ended at Divis Street, where the three men were finally apprehended.
In a statement, Detective Sergeant Faulkner said: “On Saturday 5th November 2022, colleagues from the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Air Support Unit spotted a stolen white BMW car driving in the greater Belfast area.
“As the vehicle drove recklessly through the city centre, with many near-misses of other motorists, it ran through red-lights and mounted pavements before joining the Westlink.
“The vehicle then proceeded to drive the wrong way up the Westlink, including carrying out a 3 point turn on the motorway on a busy Saturday afternoon.
“A number of vehicles were damaged, along with a number of our officers injured during the proactive pursuit before it was finally brought to halt at the Divis Street area of Belfast and all three men were detained by police.”
The detective added that the police will bring anyone who commits an offence before the courts so they can face the law.
He added on Friday: “This not only showed the importance of collaborate working across various departments within the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
“Colleagues put their lives at risk, in order to apprehend those involved and keep the public safe. It is only by chance that we were not dealing with loss of lives as well.
“Today’s sentencing is a strong indication to anyone who commits a criminal offence, that police will bring you before the courts and you will face the full rigours of the law.”
