Airdrie RCMP arrest dangerous driving suspect

AIRDRIE- RCMP have located and arrested a 28-year-old man after a dangerous driving incident that occurred over the weekend on the QE2 and Rocky View County.

On September 22, just after 10 p.m., a member of the Airdrie Integrated Traffic Unit attempted a traffic stop with a suspected impaired driver after observing him almost colliding with another vehicle on the QE2 near Crossfield.

The driver fled from police at a high rate of speed travelling southbound on the QE2 and then crossing the median and intentionally driving into oncoming traffic.

The vehicle travelled southbound in the northbound lanes for approximately 2 kilometres before driving through a fence and onto a range road.
