Police seized $14,000 of counterfeit cash following an arrest in Trafalgar East on Saturday morning.
Just after midnight on Friday police observed a white SUV travelling along Albert Rd, Warragul with its registration plate missing.
Police allege the lights on the car were switched off and it sped away when police attempted to intercept the vehicle.
Stop sticks were deployed in Trafalgar East later in the evening and the vehicle's tyres were popped as it drove past.
Police located the vehicle dumped in Moir Rd a short time after, and a 24-year-old Wodonga man, 28-year-old Warragul woman and 23-year-old Norlane women were located hiding in the backyard of nearby property.
Police allege they seized $14,000 counterfeit cash and drugs when they searched the trio.
The man and two women were charged and bailed to appear at Latrobe Valley Magistrates Court on July 12, 2023.
