Police units from Geelong, Corio and Waurn Ponds were called to an Edols Place wrecking yard about 6.30 this morning following reports of an attempted theft.

A 27-year-old woman, who police will allege was driving a getaway car, was later arrested at a Norlane home.

Her car was seized after she failed to stop in nearby Separation Street.

The three men will face the Geelong Magistrates Court on theft and trespass offences and the woman dangerous driving.
