Candice Valerie Lemmon has charges adjourned after alleged West Tamworth police pursuit

Candice Valerie Lemmon, 24, had her case delayed by just a couple of days in Tamworth Local Court on Monday.

Lemmon was taken into custody after her arrest on Thursday afternoon and will remain in prison ahead of the matter's next mention later this week.

She made no application for bail on Monday and it was formally refused.

Police allege Lemmon was unlicensed while she was behind the wheel of a car about 1:30pm on Thursday.

Officers claim she took off from police when they tried to stop her in West Tamworth, before a pursuit was sparked through suburban streets.
