At about 5:20am on Saturday, police from Richmond Local Area Command pursued a Ford utility after the driver allegedly failed to stop for a random breath test.
The pursuit continued through Casino before the vehicle ran out of petrol.
A 19-year-old man was arrested and charged with being a disqualified driver, police pursuit – not stop, drive at a speed dangerous to the public and using an unregistered motor vehicle.
