The incident was reported at around 11.10pm on August 8. The four men were arrested a short time later when officers pulled over their white van which was displaying false registration plates and had been stolen.
The 21-year-old man has been charged with driving while disqualified and driving without insurance. He remains on bail for a number of other offences. The three other men have been released under investigation while enquiries continue, North Yorkshire Police have confirmed.
