Three men have been charged after a car sped off from police in Deer Park on Sunday, June 5. The 19, 21 and 23-year-olds have all been charged with theft of motor car.

The charges follow an incident where police attempted to intercept an allegedly stolen black Holden Barina sedan in Neal Street about 2.50pm.

The car sped off and was later found dumped with the three men arrested by police shortly after. It is believed the vehicle was allegedly stolen in an aggravated burglary in Cairnlea earlier that day.
