NSW SOUTH COAST, NEW SOUTH WALES, JUL 13 – Caleb Flentjar, 25, is charged after assaulting a woman, stealing her car, and leading police on a 50km chase reaching speeds of 180km/h, before being stopped by public intervention.

  • After the theft, the man led police on a high-speed chase through multiple towns, narrowly missing officers and driving recklessly before crashing and fleeing on foot.
  • Judge Kanani Laubach reduced Lasty Jessy's bail from $194,000 to $104,000, and Jessy faces multiple charges including second-degree robbery and driving under the influence of drugs.
  • Jessy is being held at the Hawaii Community Correctional Center and is scheduled to appear for arraignment and enter a plea on July 24 before Circuit Judge Henry Nakamoto in Hilo, as the investigation continues.
