Teen charged twice in three days over alleged stolen car pursuits

ACT Policing says a 14-year-old boy has been charged over an alleged police pursuit in a stolen car twice in three days.

In a separate incident, two men were arrested for allegedly tailgating an ambulance with its lights and sirens on in a stolen car on Friday.

The Australian Federal Police Association says the alleged incidents highlight the need for stronger bail laws for repeat offenders.

A 14-year-old boy has been charged for the second time in three days after allegedly leading ACT police on a pursuit in a stolen car.

It is one of several recent incidents that has prompted the Australian Federal Police Association (AFPA) to call for tougher bail laws in the territory.

Officers spotted the stolen white Skoda Octavia at Yarralumla on Sunday night and tracked it through a number of suburbs in Canberra's south.

Police deployed tyre spikes at Kambah but the driver allegedly refused to stop and continued to speed through nearby streets.

The car eventually came to a standstill, and the 14-year-old alleged driver — who was already on bail — was arrested and charged with dangerous driving, unlicensed driving, failing to stop for police, and driving a vehicle without consent.

Police said the boy was one of seven teenagers involved in a dramatic stolen vehicle pursuit in Canberra just three days earlier on Thursday night, where an officer was driven at and a police car was hit.

"These men and women are out there to keep the community safe and they're being targeted by these boofheads."

In a separate incident on Friday, two men — who were also on bail at the time — allegedly tailgated an ambulance under lights and sirens in a stolen four-wheel drive.

Police said the car had followed the paramedics through red lights and had driven alongside the ambulance in bike lanes and on the road shoulder.

Two men, aged 19 and 30, have been charged with breach of bail and riding in a motor vehicle without consent.

Police are searching for a third occupant of the car who fled the scene.

Superintendent Anthony Brown said the incidents had been "frustrating" for officers, especially as the alleged offenders flouted bail.

"The danger to the public, the danger to our members and the danger to these offenders is immeasurable really," Superintendent Brown said.

"It's just silly, stupid behaviour that puts a lot of people at risk.

"We do our best to avoid putting people in these systems and the last thing
