A man has appeared Queanbeyan Local Court after a pursuit involving NSW and Australian Federal

Police south of Goulburn on Saturday.

Monaro Highway Patrol allegedly detected a blue Holden Commodore sedan travelling at 130km/h in a

110km/h zone on the Federal Highway at Bywong about 10.30 Saturday morning.

Police activated lights and sirens and attempted to stop the vehicle, however, the driver allegedly failed to

comply.

Officers followed the vehicle into the ACT, where Australian Federal Police assisted NSW

counterparts..

Officers used road spikes in an attempt to stop the vehicle in the ACT, however the Commodore

travelled back into NSW via the Federal Highway.

A 19-year-old man was arrested and taken to Queanbeyan Police Station.

He has been charged with six offences: police pursuit - not stop - drive recklessly; drive

vehicle recklessly/furiously or speed/manner dangerous; expired licence; unregistered
