Four teenage boys have been arrested after a car chase through Melbourne’s eastern suburbs and into the city centre, which ended when they abandoned the allegedly stolen BMW in the middle of Bourke Street mall.

Police said they had first become aware of the teenagers about 12.30pm on Monday, when they saw them allegedly driving erratically in a BMW on the Eastern Freeway in Doncaster.
