 BY IAN CROUCH

Two people are set to front court after allegedly stealing a car during a break-in at Hamilton South.

Police say the trio forced their way into the home at about 3.00am on Thursday and were disturbed by the occupant but managed to make off with the keys to the car.

Around 3 hours later, police were alerted to a car driving dangerously and crashing at Waratah West, with the 3 occupants running off in different directions.

Police Dog Xtra tracked one down in bushland off Greystones Avenue.

Another was caught after a foot chase on Verulam Road at North Lambton.

The 3rd offender remains on the run.
