A man has been charged after a police pursuit in the state's Orana region over the weekend.
About 12.20am yesterday (Sunday 18 October 2026), officers attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District were called to a home on Mullah Street, Trangie, following reports of a 34-year-old man allegedly ramming a sedan with his Toyota SUV.
Upon arrival, police were told the man allegedly used his SUV to then drive into the front of a home, causing damage to the property, before leaving the area.
It will be alleged the man returned a short time later and – in a separate Toyota SUV – drove into a utility at the property, before attending an address on George Street, Trangie, where he drove into another utility.
At about 12.50am, officers located the Toyota SUV on Dandaloo Street, Trangie, and directed the vehicle to stop. When the driver allegedly failed to stop as directed, a pursuit was initiated.
During the pursuit, the man allegedly crashed into an SUV and a sedan before eventually coming to a stop on Mullah Street.
He allegedly reversed into a police vehicle before being arrested – with the use of a Taser and the assistance of Fire and Rescue NSW – and taken to Dubbo Police Station, before he was taken to hospital for assessment.
No injuries were reported to any members of the public during the incident.
The man was charged with 13 offences,
He was refused bail to face Bail Division Court 4 today (Monday 19 October 2026).
Inquiries continue.
