Two men arrested after police chase stolen BMW through Adelaide

Two men face serious charges after police chased a stolen BMW across Adelaide, only ending after it crashed into another car – the driver hiding on a roof.

Two people have been arrested after police pursued a stolen BMW throughout Adelaide.

Police were alerted about 8am on Sunday by the owner, who received a notification his white BMW was in Paralowie.

Patrols attempted to stop the car at Santander Drive before it took off and crashed through a fence.

The police helicopter followed the vehicle, and with GPS tracking were able to see the car travelling along North East Rd, Walkerville Tce and Fullarton Rd, through the city and to the western suburbs.

The BMW then drove back through the city before making its way on to Goodwood Rd.

After the car was spiked at Colonel Light Gardens, it side swiped a Honda SUV.

The 35-year-old passenger, from Bowden, fled from the car but was apprehended soon after.

The driver, a 32-year-old Elizabeth North man, also ran from the scene before climbing on a roof. He was arrested shortly after.

Both men will be charged later on Sunday.
