Saturday, July 1, 2023
A teenager is in custody following a collision in an allegedly stolen vehicle in Southbank.
Police were called to a collision where the allegedly stolen silver Mercedes sedan crashed into another vehicle, pushing it into a business shop front on City Rd just before 10.30pm on Tuesday (June 27).
It is understood the Mercedes was involved in a Police ramming in Hughesdale just hours prior, after crashing into a bus on North Rd about 9pm.
The female driver failed to stop and reversed into a police vehicle while fleeing the scene.
A second collision with the vehicle was reported in Murrumbeena, where it crashed into a fence on Gerald St.
A 17-year-old Ballarat girl was taken to hospital under police guard.
No one was injured as a result of the incidents.
The Mercedes is believed to have been stolen during an aggravated burglary in Berwick on Monday.
Moorabbin Crime Investigation Unit detectives are investigating.
