THREE people have been arrested outside a hotel where Chelsea FC stars were staying after a car ploughed into cops.
This was following an earlier police chase in South London unrelated to the club or its players.

At around 4.30pm yesterday, a car attempted to make off from cops in Waterfront Drive, Chelsea.
The car was involved in a collision with a police vehicle – although there were no injuries, said the Met Police.
Three people were arrested – one man for failing to stop for police, and a man and a woman for being concerned in the supply of drugs.
The Metropolitan Police confirmed that a scene remains in place and enquiries continue.
A witness claimed that the Chelsea team bus was stuck at the hotel as a result of the incident, reports MyLondon.
However, this didn’t stop the team from getting to Stamford Bridge on time for the match against Wolves.
The Blues managed to win 3-1 despite their relegation battling opponents giving them trouble in their Premier League clash.
Noni Madueke’s 65th-minute goal added to earlier strikes by defenders Tosin Adarabioyo and Marc Cucurella on what looked a convincing win for Chelsea but took far too long to get over the line.
It’s a first home win for them since mid-December even if it does take Enzo Maresca’s team back into the top four right now.
They are four points off second place but still ten off the top.
