Two teenagers are facing charges fafter police were led on a two-hour high-speed chase across Auckland - at points driving on the wrong side of the road - during rush hour.
Police say the pursuit began when police located a vehicle of interest near Khyber Pass Rd at around 6pm which had been involved in an attempted vehicle theft in Albany earlier in the day.
Auckland City West’s acting prevention manager inspector Ivan Sarich said police units found the vehicle heading south on the Southern Motorway at Greenlane.
“The Police Eagle helicopter has continued to observe the vehicle, which has then been signalled to stop by Police near Hill Road.”
