A 40-year-old man's set to face Raymond Terrace Local Court today (Monday 10 March), who evaded police, fleeing into bush half naked last month.
At about 8am on Thursday February 13, police attempted to stop a blue Ford Falcon on the Bucketts Way at Booral.
Inquiries revealed the vehicle was stolen from Queensland and allegedly contained a firearm- a pursuit was initiated when the vehicle did not stop.
The man then left the car and fled on foot at Twelve Mile Creek without his pants on.
Despite help from the Dog Unit and PolAir, officers couldn't locate him.
Following extensive inquiries, he was arrested at Fassifern railway station late last month.
He's been charged with multiple offences, including possessing an unauthorised firearm and pursuit charges.
