Police have recovered a ute allegedly involved in a pursuit on the Newcastle Bypass early Friday morning.

Police say the vehicle was stolen from Redhead overnight and was spotted at Windale just after 2.30am.

The car was pursued at speed up and down the bypass before it was dumped at Windale and three occupants in the vehicle fled.

A 15-year-old boy has been arrested for breach of bail and police believe he may have also been involved in the theft and pursuit of the car.
