A pair of alleged offenders got into ‘deep water’ while fleeing from police during stormy, wild conditions. The 18-year-old Dandenong North man – along with a 17-year-old Glen Waverley boy – fled from an alleged stolen car that was stopped by police in Maeve Court, Clyde North about 8.15pm on Thursday 9 July. The man tried to swim away in a lake at the nearby Cascade on Clyde wetlands. But unable to swim, he soon called out to police before disappearing under the water several times, police say. Gang Crime Squad detectives plunged into the lake and rescued him. About 20 minutes later, the second teen was found face up in shallow water in a semi-conscious state.
