A man has been arrested after crashing a car into a Hindmarsh business, ending a police chase through Adelaide's western suburbs.

Police allege the man was armed with a screwdriver when he grabbed cash from the gaming area of the West Lakes Resort Hotel about 10:30am.

A staff member gave chase but let the offender go when threatened with the screwdriver.

The offender fled in a black utility which had been reported stolen from a property at Hindmarsh earlier in the morning.

Police spotted the car in Eastern Parade at Ottoway and, with back-up from the police helicopter, pursued it until it crashed in Port Road at Hindmarsh.

Chief Inspector Kym Zander says the utility mounted a median strip, collided with a truck and crashed into the front of a hotel.

"This is a fairly serious situation that could have had far-reaching consequences," he said.

"This out of control car could have taken, or injured, anyone who was in the vicinity."

Officers say the driver ran off but was captured a short distance away.
