A man will face court tomorrow following a pursuit in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
About 1.50am today (Thursday 12 November 2026), police attempted to stop a vehicle on Martins Avenue, Bondi.
When the vehicle did not stop as directed, a pursuit was initiated.
The pursuit was terminated a short time later when the vehicle crashed through a guard rail and down an embankment beside a house.
