Man charged after dramatic police pursuit in Queensland - 9News

A man has been charged with several offences after a police pursuit down Queensland's Bruce Highway that involved almost two dozen officers.

Police said the pursuit started at Mountain Creek on the Sunshine Coast and ended near Noosa yesterday.

It's understood the 39-year-old Mountain Creek man attempted to take a selfie during his arrest.

Witnesses counted at least 20 police cars in pursuit as the traffic separated to create a clear run for officers to drive past.

After more than an hour, police arrested the man at about 1.30pm (AEST) and took him to Maroochydore Police Station.

The scene was calm during the arrest and helicopter footage showed the man even using his phone to apparently take a selfie as police put him in handcuffs.

Police said no one was injured.

The 39-year-old Mountain Creek man has been charged with several offences including serious assault police, dangerous operation of a vehicle, unlicensed driving and unlawful possession of a weapon.

He was refused police bail and is due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court today.
