A man is due to face Newcastle Court after an alleged pursuit at Jesmond early Wednesday morning.
Police say the 42-year-old from Elermore Vale was driving a Holden Commodore and failed to stop for a random breath test on Newcastle Road at about 3.15am.
They gave chase with speeds allegedly reaching 90km/hr in a 60km/hr zone.
The man stopped his car on Cardiff Road at Elermore Vale a short time and tried to run from Police but was quickly arrested.
He's been refused bail charged with Police Pursuit not stop and breach of bail offences.
