Police are seeking the public’s help to locate a stolen silver-coloured Mazda 3 which was involved in a series of incidents in Kingaroy earlier on Wednesday.
The vehicle has Queensland plates: 719-VUN
At 1:30pm, an off-duty police officer sighted a person of interest in the vehicle at a petrol station in Youngman Street.
Officers attended and then located the vehicle in the backyard of a Victoria Street address.
“At this point a man drove the vehicle directly at police officers before driving away,” a police spokesperson said.
The vehicle was then sighted heading towards Memerambi on the Bunya Highway where it again evaded police and continued to be driven dangerously.
The last sighting of the vehicle was between Goomeri and Murgon.
Anyone who sees the vehicle is urged not to approach it but to call Kingaroy Police immediately on (07) 4160-4900 or Policelink on 13-14-44.
[UPDATED with correction. Police Media initially identified the vehicle as a Mitsubishi Magna]
