Half a dozen teens have been charged following a pursuit in Melbourne’s south east.

The chase ended on Rata Street at Wheelers Hill around 11.30 on Saturday night.

Two 17-year-olds and a 16-year-old were taken into custody, while three others – aged 15, 17 and 18 – allegedly ran from the stolen Mercedes on foot and were arrested nearby.
