Police appealed for sightings of Haumia Manuel after a man was dragged from his car in St Lukes yesterday.
It is alleged a man driving a stolen car collided with another vehicle at the intersection of St Lukes and New North Rds just after 9am yesterday.
The driver of the stolen car, who police believed to be Manuel, had allegedly earlier accelerated away and gone through a red light after being spotted by police.
After the crash, the driver was seen running down a line of traffic - testing doors of cars as he went, before opening one and dragging its driver out.
Now police have now gained a High Court order to confiscate nearly $37,000.
