A 29-year-old Withers man has been charged after a police pursuit in Bunbury overnight.

The dog squad was sent to the area and found the man allegedly hiding in bushes in a nearby street.
He was charged with a string of offences, including driving in excess of 0.08 and possessing a prohibited drug.
He is due to appear in court next month.
