DRIVER LEADS POLICE ON PURSUIT STRETCHING MORE THAN 80 KILOMETRES

A 33-year-old man has been charged over an early morning police pursuit in the state’s Northern Rivers.

Police will allege the man was behind the wheel of a stolen Toyota Corolla, which failed to stop for a random breath test at Casino at around 1 o’clock this morning.

A pursuit was commenced, with the car at times crossing to the wrong side of the road as it travelled through South Lismore, Nimbin and Uki.
