A man has been arrested after fleeing the scene of a crash in Sydney's south-west overnight.
Just before 2.30am (Saturday 18 July 2020), officers from Liverpool City Police Area Command attempted to stop a VW Golf on Flowderdale Road, Liverpool, after it was detected speeding.
The vehicle failed to stop, and a pursuit was initiated. It was terminated a short time later due to safety concerns.
The VW continued travelling north, before colliding with a Holden Cruze at the intersection of the Hume Highway and Memorial Avenue. The male driver exited the vehicle and fled the scene on foot.
The driver and three passengers of the Holden were uninjured, with one of the passengers being treated at the scene for shock.
Following a search of the surrounding area, with assistance from the Dog Unit, a 28-year-old man was arrested on Castlereagh Street about 3.30am and taken to Liverpool Police Station.
Inquiries continue.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence.
