Four Apprehended After Stolen Vehicle Crashes
Inspector Danny Meade: Four people have been apprehended after a vehicle, reported as stolen, crashed in Manukau this afternoon. Shortly before 3pm, a Police vehicle sighted a vehicle that was reported as stolen, travelling on Portage Road in Otahuhu. The Police helicopter, Eagle, maintained observations of the vehicle as it continued to travel south towards Manukau. The vehicle was not pursued. The vehicle was successfully spiked on Great South Road, near Reagan Street, but the vehicle did not come to a stop. A short time after the vehicle was spiked, at around 3:20pm, the vehicle collided with a member of the public's vehicle at the intersection of Great South Road and Cavendish Drive. The four occupants of the offending vehicle then fled on foot. Three were quickly apprehended, and a fourth person was located and taken into custody a short distance down the road soon after. A member of the public has sustained minor injuries following the crash, no other injuries have been reported. Motorists around the Great South Road and Cavendish Drive area are advised to expect delays as the scene of the crash is cleared.
