A car chase in Larnaca led to the arrest of five young men early Wednesday morning, after police intercepted a suspicious vehicle and discovered valuables inside. All five are expected to appear before the Larnaca District Court today for a remand hearing.

According to police, the car chase in Larnaca began at approximately 3:00 am, when officers attempted to stop a vehicle that refused to comply.
