Police arrested a 39-year old man and 35-year old Werribee woman in an allegedly stolen car at a St Albans drive-thru early morning on Wednesday 26 November.

Officers were patrolling Paringa Drive when they observed the allegedly stolen Subaru about 1.50am.

They continued to follow the vehicle into a drive-thru bottle shop on Sunshine Avenue and attempted to intercept the car.

The Subaru came to a dead-end and allegedly reversed into the police vehicle.

Realising there was no way out, the driver and passenger allegedly attempted to run off but were quickly arrested.

The man and woman will be interviewed by police.

It is alleged the Subaru was stolen from Yarraville on 22 October.

Any witnesses, anyone with vision or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or anonymously at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
