A 14-year-old girl led police on a 19km pursuit through Tauranga last night, police say.
Acting Senior Sergeant Tristan Murray said the girl failed to stop for police sparking a pursuit through Welcome Bay to Mount Maunganui and back to Papamoa.
The chase ended when the teenager drove over road spikes laid by police in Papamoa.
Two 15-year-old girls were passengers in the car, Mr Murray said. The driver was also processed for drink driving.
The girls had been referred to youth aid.
