Patrolling police attempted to stop a Subaru Outback for a random breath test in York Street, Booragul just before 2.00am on Tuesday morning.

However, the car sped off with the pursuit reaching speeds of 120 kilometres per hour in an 80 zone.

It was was called off after 3 minutes due to the manner of driving and the car was found dumped a short time later near the waterfront at Toronto.

It's not clear yet if the car was stolen.
