The Polair helicopter has been called in to help search for an allegedly stolen car involved in a series of pursuits from the Central Coast to Lake Macquarie.
An Audi was stolen from Sydney on Wednesday night with police from Brisbane Water, Tuggerah Lakes, Lake Macquarie and the Highway Patrol all involved in attempting to stop the car.
However, the pursuits were called off on each occasion for safety reasons.
Police lost sight of the car at Catherine Hill Bay.
The vehicle is believed to be still in the Lake Macquarie or Newcastle areas and the search is continuing.
