as posted on PerthNow
POLICE have given a description of the man they are searching for, who escaped after allegedly shooting at police during a high-speed pursuit.
The man is described as Caucasian, 174cm tall, of slim build, clean shaven and with short, dark cropped hair.
Police spokesman Ian Hasleby said the man was believed to be in the Brookdale area and was wearing a black shirt with a white motif, jeans and white runners.
The man should not be approached, but anyone sighting him should call Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000.
Earlier
One man was arrested but a second escaped after a high-speed car chase in which shots were fired at police in Perth.
A speeding Holden Commodore was spotted by police during a patrol in suburban Brookdale about 1am (WDT) today, police spokesman Ian Hasleby said.
"As it was being followed a gun was discharged at the police vehicle,'' Mr Hasleby said.
"The car was driven into a paddock and the offenders fired at the police.
"None of the officers was shot or injured and they returned fire.''
One of the men was captured in a brook about 6am (WDT) this morning after police called in support including dog squad officers, the police helicopter and Tactical Response Group members.
A shotgun was recovered when the first man was captured.
This morning police, including mounted police, were still searching for the second man, who was believed to be still in the sealed-off area.
Police do not know if he is armed.
The arrested man was been taken to Armadale police station for questioning.
