A Blenheim teenager admitted multiple charges relating to a 200-kilometre police chase when he appeared in the Blenheim Youth Court on Wednesday.
The 17-year-old, who cannot be named, admitted stealing petrol, burglary, unlawfully getting into a car, resisting police and taking a car, but denied another charge of taking a car.
He was remanded on bail to reappear on November 30 for a social worker's report.
Two other Blenheim teenagers, aged 15 and 16, had charges of unlawfully entering a motor vehicle withdrawn and no longer face court action.
It is understood that the charges relate to a police chase from Blenheim south along State Highway 1 on September 21.
Police used road spikes to stop the car near the Hurunui Bridge in Canterbury.
