A lengthy pursuit has ended with the arrest of two people at Black Hill on the outskirts of Newcastle.
Officers spotted an allegedly stolen car in New Lambton at about 8.00am on Thursday and began following the vehicle but terminated the chase due to the risk to public safety.
PolAir then found the car travelling near Black Hill, with the driver and passenger dumping the car and running off in different directions after crashing the vehicle.
Police Dog Yule quickly tracked down the passenger for arresting officers then took off after the driver and rounded him up as well.
The 34-year-old driver was wanted on an outstanding warrant - he and the passenger were taken to Waratah Police Station for charging.
It's alleged several weapons and drugs were found in the vehicle.
