A man has been arrested following a pursuit and subsequent collision in Melbourne this morning.
Police noticed a minivan travelling on Leakes Road, Truganina about 4am this morning.
The van was of interest to police in relation to an ongoing investigation.
The van was covertly followed along the West Gate Freeway until it exited at the Kings Way off ramp and started travelling towards the city.
Officers were able to successfully deploy vehicle immobilization devices on Kings Way and the vehicle slowed but refused to pull over for police.
A pursuit was called but terminated when the van crossed onto the wrong side of the road.
A short time later the van was involved in a head on crash with another car on the Kings Way Bridge.
The offending driver suffered non-life-threatening injuries and has been taken to hospital under police guard.
The two males in the other car also suffered injuries and are being treated at the scene.
The offending vehicle was searched and it is alleged police found a large quantity of drugs.
Kings Way is currently shut in both directions and the investigation into the incident is ongoing.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or with footage is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or visit www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
