Police are searching for a car thief, who sparked a high-speed chase through the city.

Officers say a 2005 Mazda RX-8 was stolen from North Dunedin on Saturday night.

The car was then involved in a police pursuit, which officers were forced to abandon due to the unsafe way the suspect was driving.

Police found the car, with a blown tyre, about 7.30am yesterday at Evansdale Glen just north of the city.
