A Hunter Valley man has been extradited from Queensland in relation to five outstanding warrants.
The 29-year-old was arrested at a hotel in Beaudesert on Wednesday, before being taken to Beenleigh Magistrates Court where an extradition order was granted.
It’s alleged the Broke man was behind the wheel of a Toyota Hilux, which rammed a police vehicle on Wollombi Road in October last year.
The vehicle was found abandoned in a nearby paddock, while attempts to locate the driver proved unsuccessful.
The warrants related to avoiding apprehension, police pursuit, driving whilst disqualified, and impersonating police.
