Man, 26, screams for his mum after allegedly trying to flee cops
Dramatic video showed two officers apprehend and handcuff the 26-year-old on Tuesday afternoon as they led him to a police car in Salisbury North.
His head was held down as he was escorted from the scene.
'Help, please,' the Paralowie man screamed.
One policeman told the alleged offender to 'put your head down, stop talking'.
'Mum, I love you. Mum, mum, I love you,' the 26-year-old continued.
The incident started after the man allegedly failed to stop for officers.
It is alleged he was behind the wheel of a black Ford SUV and refused to pull over when lights and sirens were activated on McCormack Crescent in Salisbury North.
Minutes later police stopped a vehicle on Perkins Court, alleging the wanted 26-year-old was a passenger in the car.
He is then accused of attempting to run from officers.
The man was later charged with driving unlicensed, dangerous speeding, fail to stop, and resisting arrest.
A police car crashed into a gutter during the incident and was later towed away.
One officer sustained minor injuries arresting the man.
'Two women, aged 43 and 21, who allegedly attempted to prevent police from arresting the suspect were also arrested,' South Australia Police said in a statement.
'They were both charged with hinder police.'

Crows star investigated over alleged vilification
Izak Rankine, one of Adelaide's most important players, is under investigation for an alleged homophobic slur. Rankine, if found guilty, could be suspended for ladder-leader Adelaide's looming finals campaign. The AFL has previously handed down suspensions ranging from three to five games to players guilty of homophobic slurs. The top-placed Crows have one home-and-away game remaining and can't finish lower than second entering the finals. Adelaide officials have refused to name Rankine as the player under investigation. But it's known the brilliant forward/midfielder is at the centre of the probe. "We are aware of an alleged matter involving one of our players in Saturday night's game and we are in discussions with the AFL," a Crows spokesman said on Monday. The AFL confirmed an investigation but also didn't name Rankine. "The AFL is aware of an alleged matter, with the AFL integrity unit making enquiries," the league said in a statement. Rankine allegedly directed a slur at a Collingwood opponent in Saturday night's clash at Adelaide Oval, which the Crows won by three points. The AFL this year banned West Coast's Jack Graham for four games after he admitted a homophobic slur against a GWS opponent in round 17. Last year, Gold Coast's Wil Powell was suspended for five matches and Port Adelaide's Jeremy Finlayson was banned three games, both for making homophobic comments to opponents. Any ban for Rankine, renowned as among the league's most talented players, would be a hammer blow to Adelaide's finals campaign. "Obviously it's not ideal," Adelaide captain Jordan Dawson told reporters on arrival at the club's West Lakes headquarters on Monday. "But it's in the AFL's hands, it's being investigated and we will see what happens. "We will wait and see and leave it up to the AFL to go through what they have to go through." The Crows will enter the finals in top spot if they defeat North Melbourne on Saturday. Adelaide will then host two finals as club returns to the playoffs for the first time since losing the 2017 grand final. Rankine, 25, is yet to play a final. He spent three seasons with Gold Coast before the Adelaide-born playmaker joined the Crows at the end of the 2022 season. Last Monday, Rankine spoke of his excitement at Adelaide's finals campaign. "I have never been this high on the ladder before so it's quite nice," he told reporters. "We'll appreciate it ... it's nice to think about, but we know we have some more steps to take throughout the year."

Adelaide Crows teammates speak out as AFL investigates Izak Rankine's alleged homophobic slur
The fallout from the AFL 's investigation into Izak Rankine has begun even before the Adelaide Crows star has learned his fate over an alleged homophobic slur. The livewire forward is facing a lengthy ban if found guilty of directing a slur at a Collingwood opponent in Saturday's clash at Adelaide Oval. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: AFL investigating Izak Rankine over alleged homophobic slur. Previous suspensions for homophobic slurs have ranged from three to five games, putting Rankine at risk of missing a possible grand final appearance. 'Obviously it's not ideal,' Adelaide captain Jordan Dawson told reporters on arrival at the club's West Lakes headquarters on Monday. 'But it's in the AFL's hands, it's being investigated and we will see what happens. 'We will wait and see and leave it up to the AFL to go through what they have to go through.' Crows forward Darcy Fogarty also said it's 'definitely not ideal' and twice said he would not get into details. But when asked how much 'education AFL players receive about what's appropriate on the field around homophobia', he spoke more openly and emphasised: 'Yeah, I reckon we definitely get enough. Yeah.' Fogarty said from his perspective the league's culture is 'positive and supportive'. 'We're massive role models for the community. We've got to be really careful in terms of how we use that power,' the 25-year-old said. Any ban for Rankine, also 25, would be a hammer blow to Adelaide's finals campaign. 'We've had a massive process for the whole year of 'next guy up' so we've got massive belief that any role can be filled at the moment,' Fogarty said. The AFL this year banned West Coast's Jack Graham for four games after he admitted a homophobic slur against a GWS opponent in round 17. Last year, Gold Coast's Wil Powell was suspended for five matches and Port Adelaide's Jeremy Finlayson was banned three games, both for making homophobic comments to opponents. The Crows will enter the finals in top spot if they defeat North Melbourne on Saturday. Adelaide will then host two finals as club returns to the playoffs for the first time since losing the 2017 grand final. Rankine, 25, is yet to play a final and last week spoke of his excitement. 'I have never been this high on the ladder before so it's quite nice,' he told reporters. 'We'll appreciate it ... it's nice to think about, but we know we have some more steps to take throughout the year.' Rankine spent three seasons with Gold Coast before the Adelaide-born playmaker joined the Crows at the end of the 2022 season.
