A driver is on the run after ramming into a police car at Windale.
The plain clothes officers tried to stop a Nissan Patrol on Lake Street at about 5.00pm on Thursday, when the driver reversed into their police car and fled.
The officers followed the 4WD into nearby Belar Avenue where the front of their car was rammed again, leaving the vehicle extensively damaged before the Nissan drove off.
Both officers were treated for minor injuries in John Hunter Hospital.
The vehicle was later found at Belmont North and a nearby unit has since been searched, with items seized for further investigation.
