A sports car worth £157,000 which was stolen only 10 days after being bought was tracked down and returned in just an hour.

It was a rollercoaster 60 minutes for the Porsche owner after it was taken from Swansea.

But South Wales Police in the Swansea and Neath Port Talbot area said the sleek black car was "sighted, stopped, seized and driver arrested".

Police said there was "one very happy owner" when the car was returned and called it "a great team effort" from firearms and roads officers.
