The chase only came to an end when Alfar's car crashed near Kempsey, five hours south of his home in Buccan over the Queensland border.
Alfar was charged with multiple offences by NSW Police, including dangerous driving.
None of the charges relate to the death of his support worker, who was found dead on the back deck of his Buccan property around 3am yesterday.
The 46-year-old woman was declared missing from Ashgrove in Brisbane's north-west two hours earlier, after her family failed to hear from her.
Police found her body, with visible injuries, after conducting a welfare search at Alfar's house on Waterford Tamborine Road in Buccan.

He is expected to face court in NSW today.
Police from Queensland, including homicide detectives, are expected to travel to NSW today to speak with Alfar.
Detectives are waiting on the results of a post-mortem before moving forward with their investigation.
Anyone with information is being urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
