A driver was taken into custody for reportedly crashing into police vehicles during a chase.

In a chaotic and dramatic event, a truck driver in Greater Western Sydney has led police on a wild chase and caused significant damage along the way. It all began when authorities received a call about someone attempting to steal a truck on Toongabbie Road in Girraween at midnight.

As officers arrived on the scene, they quickly realized that the truck was still in motion and refused to stop despite their attempts. The driver continued to drive recklessly and eventually crashed into a parked prime mover. Undeterred, the truck continued to barrel down Toongabbie Road, making its way towards Magowar Road. It then turned onto Gilba Road and finally crashed into a fence on Oramzi Road.

Police were hot on the truck's trail, following it through several streets until it collided with a parked Toyota Camry on Normac Road. However, even this didn't stop the driver as they continued onto the Great Western Highway in Toongabbie. It wasn't until road spikes were deployed that the truck was finally brought to a halt.

As the truck came to a stop, a roadblock was established on the highway. However, in a shocking turn of events, the truck collided with not one, but five police cars at the intersection of Tarlington Place in Prospect. The impact was so severe that one of the police cars was pushed into a nearby power pole.

Thankfully, the police inspector who was inside the car was uninjured and was promptly treated by NSW Paramedics. It's been reported that officers had to surround the truck with their police cars to force the driver to come to a stop after he had already crashed into multiple vehicles. To make matters worse, the driver was uncooperative and ended up being tasered by authorities.

The driver, a 45-year-old man, was eventually arrested and taken to Westmead Hospital. He remains there and will undergo a mental health assessment. It's clear that this was a dangerous and troubling situation that could have had much more severe consequences. Thankfully, the quick actions of the police were able to bring it to a safe conclusion.
