A Beveridge man was charged after he allegedly evaded police before being followed through Melbourne’s north-western suburbs on Friday morning.
Officers found the car, with allegedly stolen plates, driving on Sydney Road in Fawkner at about 1.30am, and attempted to intercept the vehicle, but it failed to stop and took off at speed.
With assistance from the police air wing, police followed the car to Serpens Court in Roxburgh Park, where the vehicle was dumped.
