Evade Police- 2 In Custody

On July 18, 2020 at 3:01 a.m., a patrol officer observed a suspicious vehicle near 8th Street/Broadway Avenue. As the officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop, the driver of the vehicle failed to stop for police, at which point the officer disengaged the vehicle.

The Saskatoon Police Air Support Unit (ASU) immediately took over and monitored this vehicle as it drove at high rates of speed through Saskatoon and north on highway 11 towards the City of Warman. Members from the RCMP and Corman Park Police assisted with successfully deploying a tire deflation device at 3:52a.m.. The two occupants of the vehicle then attempted to flee on foot in a rural area just east of Warman. The male driver was arrested immediately without incident while the female passenger attempted to hide. ASU was able to keep eyes on this female until she was taken into custody without incident with the assistance of a K-9 member.

A 33 year old male is charged with fail to stop for police, possession of a weapon (knife), possession of stolen property over $5000 and possession of identity belonging to four separate individuals.

A 26 year old female was charged with breach of undertaking.

Both will remain in custody until being seen by a Justice of the Peace tonight.
