When the officers reached the car, one could be heard shouting at the other to smash the passenger window of the car with their baton.

Smoke poured from the car's engine as they forced their way inside and dragged the woman onto the sidewalk, where she lay screaming and moaning.

NSW Police said the woman was a person of interest in relation to a number of burglary offenses committed in Lilyfield earlier in the morning.

A spokesperson initially said this attempted to stop the Subaru on Henley Marine Drive near Rodds Point around 11.15am before a pursuit was initiated.

The car was probably one of the stolen goods a house in Lilyfield.

The woman was taken to the Day Street police station, where officers said she will remain until they deem her suitable for an interview.
