Meadow Lake RCMP arrest two individuals involved in vehicle theft
The Meadow Lake RCMP has arrested two individuals that attempted to evade arrest late last week.
On Friday evening, officers responded to complaints of a motorist driving recklessly on Highway 55. Once the vehicle was sighted by police, the officers tried to get the driver to pull over, but the suspect resisted and was later located at a business on the 100th block of 9th Street West in Meadow Lake.
An investigation revealed the vehicle was reported stolen from Prince Albert.
When an officer approached the vehicle to arrest the driver, the suspect started reversing into the police cruiser while the female passenger tried to help the driver evade arrest. At this point, the second officer arrived to offer support.
