Police attempted to stop the vehicle being driven by a 52-year-old man as he was heading into Dunedin on the Northern Motorway, about 8.30pm yesterday. The man was speeding and refused to stop, Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond, of Dunedin, said. The man may have also had a dog with him, Snr Sgt Bond said. A charge of drink driving would depend on the result of the blood sample, which was pending, Snr Sgt Bond said.
