A woman was taken into custody in the early hours of Monday morning after a police pursuit left her car in a flaming heap.
The 29-year-old was signalled to pull over by officers at around 1.30am, but she failed to remain at the scene and instead fled.
Police did not pursue the car, a spokesperson said.
As the woman fled, her car ended up crashing into a fence on Shirley Rd and caught fire as a result.
She was assessed at hospital but did not have serious injuries.
