RCMP officers quickly located the vehicle in a nearby parking lot, on Gray St., and spoke with the driver who provided officers with a false name before fleeing on foot.
A foot pursuit followed and resulted in the man being safely arrested.
During the man’s arrest, officers found and seized baggies containing white powdery residue, cell phone, cash and a spring-loaded knife.
RCMP officers transported the man to a hospital, as a precaution due the earlier vehicle crash, where they learned of the man’s real name and subsequently of his arrest warrant.
