UPDATE: Stolen vehicle suspect charged in taxi armed robbery
BLACKFALDS – A 31-year-old man is due in court Thursday after being arrested following a police pursuit earlier this week.
On Monday, shortly before 6 p.m., RCMP were alerted by the public about of an erratic driver in a field, east of Red Deer.
By the time Mounties arrived and located the vehicle, the occupants had fled on foot. Containment was set up and Red Deer RCMP dog services were called to the area.
A short time later, a man was brought to the attention of one of the RCMP officers. The suspect tried to flee on foot but was arrested a short distance away.
