A 35-year-old man is due to appear in Tauranga District Court today after a car crash followed an alleged attempted burglary in Mount Maunganui early this morning.
A police spokeswoman said the man was arrested after allegedly trying to break into an industrial building in Mount Maunganui about 12.10am.
The man was interrupted during the alleged break-in and fled, the spokeswoman said.
Police gained a description of the vehicle and tracked it remotely, before it crashed on the intersection of Waihī Rd and Birch Ave about 12.45am.
