Evade Police/Arrest - Circle Dr. & College Dr.

Saskatoon Police arrested a man last night, after he refused to stop for officers.

At approximately 8:15 p.m., August 13, 2019, Patrol officers observed a blue Ford F-350 truck at the intersection of Confederation Drive and 22nd Street West. Officers learned the truck was previously reported stolen and it was bearing the incorrect licence plate. A traffic stop was attempted, but the suspect fled and began driving erratically. The Air Support Unit (ASU) located the truck and began monitoring from above. Ground units successfully deployed a tire deflation device near Highway 11 and Grasswood Road. The suspect travelled north on Circle Drive, and struck a street light pole when exiting onto College Drive. The suspect attempted to continue driving, before he exited the vehicle and fled on foot. He was quickly taken into custody by Police.

A 37 year old man is charged with Dangerous Driving, Evade Police, Possession of Stolen Property over $5000 and Breach of Probation.
