A stolen Porsche is the third vehicle in the past week to take off after police tried to stop it. Each time, there has been a high-speed chase before the car was stopped.
On Tuesday, a BMW was only stopped after a tyre-puncturing device was laid across the road. And on Saturday afternoon, a 15-year-old boy allegedly narrowly missed a pram as he revved up the Mazda he was driving to try to evade police.
The latest in the spate of car thefts followed by chases happened on Tuesday when the white Porsche Cayenne took off when told to stop by police.
