2 Fast, 2 Stupid

Two men out on bail have been charged with a range of offences following a police pursuit across Melbourne’s outer eastern suburbs on Wednesday night.

It is alleged that a Porsche 911 GT and Aston Martin Vanquish were stolen in Toorak just before 8.30pm on 21 April, with the offenders fleeing east.

Police would like to hear from anyone with dash cam footage who was driving through Mount Evelyn, Montrose and surrounding suburbs around 10.30pm on 21 April.

Officers tracked the 2018 model Porsche through the eastern suburbs to Boronia, where stop sticks were used to bring the men to a stop.

Detectives from Stonnington Crime Investigation Unit charged a 20-year-old Heathmont man with aggravated burglary, theft, attempted theft, reckless conduct endangering serious injury, driving whilst disqualified and committing an indictable offence while on bail.

A 19-year-old Narre Warren man was also charged with trespassing, theft of a motor vehicle, attempted theft of a motor vehicle, reckless conduct endangering serious injury, committing an indictable offence while on bail and breaching bail conditions.

Both men have been remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates Court on 5 May.

Officers located the Aston Martin about 4am in Sharyn Street, Cranbourne.

If you have any information or dash cam footage, contact Stonnington CIU on (03) 9520 5200.
