A “dangerous” Black Power member wanted over a violent family harm incident has evaded pursuing police in Whangārei.
Toa Pitman’s vehicle was spotted by officers in Te Kamo on Wednesday, a day after the family harm incident.
The 42-year-old failed to stop for police, sparking a pursuit.
The chase ended just over 2km away, when Pitman stopped his vehicle and ran off.
Detective Senior Sergeant Aaron Crawford said police discharged a sponge round during the incident.
