A Hamilton father who was fleeing police stopped and let his child out of the car before speeding off again.
Waikato police Senior Sergeant Phil Ruddell said the man was signalled to stop by police due to the nature of his driving just before 10am today.
Instead of stopping, he continued driving at speed through suburbs Frankton and Dinsdale.
Ruddell said at one point during the incident the man stopped to let his passenger, his young child, out of the car at a family member's home before continuing on.
He eventually stopped at Quail Place, near Melville.
