Teens arrested following cop chase

Four teenagers have been arrested and charged following a pursuit in Cranbourne on Monday 16 March.

Police allegedly clocked a stolen car travelling along Cherryhill Drive at 170km/h in an 80km/h zone about 12.40am.

A short pursuit was initiated, and the car was dumped near the intersection of Harmer Road and the Princes Highway where the teens ran from the scene, police say.

Officers from Casey Highway Patrol, Narre Warren, Endeavour Hills, Public Order Response Team and Frontline Tactical Unit assisted in arresting the teens nearby.

Two 16-year-old boys from Narre Warren and Cranbourne, a 14-year-old Cranbourne North boy and a 16-year-old Cranbourne girl have all been charged with theft of motor vehicle and other related offences.

They will appear at a children’s court at a later date.
