The group allegedly used a stolen pass to enter a gym in Wantirna about 11.30pm last night. There, they allegedly took the keys to a gym patron's Mazda 3. The group allegedly used a stolen pass to enter a gym near the corner of Mountain Highway and Thaxted Parade in Wantirna about 11.30 last night. (Nine) Police rushed to the gym car park where they arrested one of the males. The remaining offenders avoided capture, allegedly dropping a machete as they fled in the stolen Mazda. The car was then tracked to the Dandenong area about 1am, where it was travelling southbound on Eastlink. The Mazda then began driving in convoy with another allegedly stolen car, both speeding through Seaford. Stop sticks were deployed on Cranbourne Road. The Mazda continued to drive and was allegedly dumped near Moate Street a short time later. Officers searched the area and arrested two males, one of whom had climbed onto a nearby roof. Police cornered one teen in a Langwarrin driveway. (Nine) "We heard the commotion of 'get on the ground, get on the ground'," a nearby resident said. "For it to happen out the front of home, yeah, it was a little bit scary."
