Police are hunting for a man who was arrested after a 12-car smash on the A27.
Marcus Cresswell is wanted by police after failing to attend court to face charges in connection with the crash, which took place in Worthing in October 2021.
The 34-year-old was detained by members of the public after allegedly driving a Ford Transit van through queuing traffic on the A27 on October 1, 2021, causing multiple crashes and minor injuries to a number of drivers and passengers in other vehicles.
The Crown Prosecution Service subsequently authorised charging him with failing to stop at a road traffic collision, driving without insurance, driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence, dangerous driving, failing to provide a specimen for analysis and criminal damage (to a police cell).

Cresswell, of no fixed address but with connections to Brighton, was summonsed to court by postal requisition to face charges on May 3, 2022, but this was returned undelivered as not known at the address he provided. As a result, a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Despite extensive enquiries, he remains outstanding and an appeal has been made for information to locate him.
Anyone who knows of his whereabouts or who may have seen him is asked to report online or call 101 quoting serial 1040 of 01/10/2021.
