A police pursuit last night came to a sudden halt when three
police cars rammed a vehicle off the road in residential
Flaxmere.
It is understood all five occupants in the vehicle attempted
to flee but were apprehended.
Resident Joshua Kahui said the vehicle came "flying" along
Caernarvon Drive before police boxed it in directly outside
his home. Police then got out of their vehicles and chased
the occupants down.
"There were three [police] cars at first then I don't know
how many after that," he said. "It was a lot."
He said four passengers attempted to run through the park
across the road, while another ran into a neighbouring
property.
The police pursuit began outside of Flaxmere. Police refused
to comment at the scene but it is thought the vehicle may
have been stolen.
