Police have arrested three people after officers responded to reports offenders were breaking into a Mercedes sedan at a Mount Waverley home when the offenders were disturbed at about 3.30am.

It’s understood the offenders were disturbed when the victim came outside to investigate before fleeing the scene in an allegedly stolen Commodore.

Public Order Response Unit officers spotted the Commodore speeding through side streets before Air Wing picked it up a short time later.

Stop sticks were successfully deployed on Ferntree Gully Road but the Commodore continued driving on its rims.

The vehicle came to a stop on Fulton Road, Blackburn South about 4.30am.

The alleged car thieves gave themselves up and Critical Incident Response Team officers arrested the trio.

All three are currently assisting police with their enquiries.
