A 13-year-old boy has been arrested after being pursued by police in the early hours of Tuesday 27 May.
Officers on patrol initially spotted a black Porsche wagon which they believed to be stolen at around 1.30am, travelling along Quarry Road in Langwarrin.
Patrol vehicles and air units followed the Porsche as it turned onto Cranbourne-Frankston Road and headed through Cranbourne, looping back south towards Mornington.
Police deployed stop sticks on Thompsons Road to safely deflate the Porsche’s tyres, and the vehicle came to a stop on Peninsula Link in Moorooduc about 4.10am.
The teenage sole occupant of the car was arrested at the scene.
Victoria Police say they have made over 1,700 car theft arrests in the past year.
