Man arrested over fatal Sydney pursuit

A man wanted over the Sydney police chase which led to the death of a 17-month-old girl has been arrested.

Police have been searching for Christopher Chandler, 22, since he allegedly crashed a stolen Audi through the fence of a Constitution Hill property into a backyard where children were playing last Thursday night.

Toddler Tatalena Tauaifaga was playing on the other side of the fence and sustained fatal injuries.

Chandler was yesterday arrested at a home at Gorokan, on the Central Coast.

"He has been taken to Wyong Police Station where he is currently assisting with inquiries," police said.

A critical incident investigation will look at what car involved in the pursuit caused 17-month-old Tatalena's injuries.
