Courtney Louise Grant first came to the attention of police in June last year when officers were called to a house on Palmer Street, after reports people were fighting and arguing on the front lawn.

When they arrived they saw Grant being chased by a male before she was dragged away screaming.

Police exited the car to help, before a prolonged and violent struggle began between the male and the officers.

According to court documents, during this struggle Grant climbed into the police vehicle and attempted to leave before one of her friends pulled her from the vehicle.

As police wrestled with the man, Grant ran over and punched the two officers in the back of the head.

Police called for urgent assistance, when Grant ripped the police radio off the senior constable's vest and ran off with it and his body-worn camera.

Grant ran back as the male was being handcuffed when another struggle took place. Grant was tackled to the ground, when she continued to resist arrest.

She managed to break free and ran from police. A short time later officers located her hiding in a backyard nearby, before she picked up a pair of steel pliers and began swinging them at police, hitting one of the officers on the hand.

Police used capsicum spray before Grant was arrested.

Grant again came to the attention of police again on September 17 last year when she was spotted travelling along Erskine Street. She was pulled over by police when she produced her digital provisional licence.

Police conducted a roadside breath test where grant returned an alcohol reading of 0.126.

A month later, Grant came to the attention of police when she was driving a silver Mitsubishi Magna along Fitzroy Street. Police attempted to stop her for a random breath test when she sped off and led police on a seven kilometre chase.

According to police, at one point Grant drove over the roundabout at the intersection of Darling and Tamworth streets before they noticed smoke expelling from underneath the car and occasional sparks coming from the rear of the vehicle.

Grant continued travelling along Macquarie Street at 90km/h in a signposted 60km/h zone. She began travelling down and along the Old Dubbo Road at 120km/h in a 100km/h zone, where on this stretch police said she overtook one vehicle.

After about four kilometres the front tyre of the vehicle blew and detached from the car. As police arrived they saw Grant move to the rear passenger seat.

Inside the car was another 35-year-old female and a young person, before Grant told police she was on bail and didn't have a licence. "I just freaked out," she told police.

She was arrested and returned a positive alcohol reading of 0.011.

Supported by her father in Dubbo Local Court on Wednesday, Grant pleaded guilty to a string of charges including two counts of drink-driving, initiating a police pursuit, assaulting and resisting police officers, using an offensive weapon and assaulting a police officer causing actual bodily harm.

Defence lawyer David Pheeney said prior to the offending Grant was a "good young kid", however went "off the rails" during the time of offending. He said this was because at the time she was in "not a particularly good relationship".

However Mr Pheeney argued Grant had since "turned her life around" by securing employment, rental accommodation and had not committed an offence in seven and a half months.

"This is a young person who has good prospects for the future," he said.

Magistrate Gary Wilson said despite Grant's early plea of guilt and lack of criminal history, the police pursuit and assault on police were "very serious offences".

"Police are there trying to do their job, they're not heading off to work each day to be assaulted in the manner in which you did," he said.

"It obviously want a good situation. It was fuelled, to some extend by alcohol and who knows what."

Magistrate Wilson convicted and sentenced Grant to an 18-month intensive corrections order - a jail term served in the community. She was also ordered to abstain from alcohol and undertake 250 hours of community service.

She was also fined $1300 and disqualified from driving for 18 months.
