A driver who allegedly sped away from police has been arrested after his car ran out of petrol in Frankston overnight, Victoria Police say.
Somerville Highway Patrol officers spotted the green Daewoo, which had allegedly stolen number plates, on Frankston-Dandenong Road about 11.30pm.
Police attempted to intercept it but the car took off.
No pursuits were initiated.
The car continued to drive erratically through the area before eventually heading onto Peninsula Link.
Police attempted to intercept the vehicle when it suddenly slowed down in the service lane, having run out of fuel.
A 41-year-old man from Cranbourne was arrested at the scene.
A search of his car revealed allegedly stolen goods and a small quantity of GHB.
He was taken back to the station and is currently being interviewed.
The investigation is ongoing.
