Police found the man still in the George St and Moray Pl area about 4.20am today, Sergeant Matt Lee, of Dunedin, said. The 26-year-old was earlier wandering around and attempted to steal a bike locked with a chain in George St. When the light turned green, the driver went to turn and the man ‘‘became aggressive’’ and chased the car down on foot, police said. While running, he attempted to hit the car with the bike seat.
