A man will face court charged after an alleged pursuit and police car rammed in the state's south.
About 9.20am on Thursday 18 September 2025, officers attached to Southern Region Operations Support Group were patrolling Davidson Street, Warilla, when they attempted to stop a Ford hatchback.
Checks revealed the vehicle was stolen from a home in Cronulla on Tuesday 16 September 2025.
When it failed to stop as directed, a pursuit was initiated.
The vehicle stopped near the intersection of Shellharbour Road and Queen Street due to heavy traffic, where police attempted to remove the driver.
It is alleged the driver rammed into a police car and two other vehicles, before driving away.
There were no injuries as a result of the crash.
The pursuit was terminated on Veronica Street due to safety concerns, before the vehicle was located abandoned on Woolworths Avenue, Warilla.
A crime scene was established and the vehicle was seized to be forensically examined.
Following extensive inquiries, about 11.45am yesterday (Friday 27 September 2025), Taskforce Falcon officers attended a home on Aliberti Drive, Blacktown and arrested an 18-year-old man.

- Police pursuit - not stop - drive dangerously
- Take and drive conveyance without consent of owner
- Never licensed person drive vehicle on road - prior offence
- Goods in personal custody suspected being stolen (motor vehicle)
He was refused bail to appear before Parramatta Local Court today (Saturday 27 September 2025).
