A local man will spend nearly three years behind bars after crashing a stolen truck struck in north Red Deer this past spring.

The truck collided with an SUV at the intersection of Oliver Street and Taylor Drive on the evening of May 25.

The 68-year-old female driver of the SUV was sent to hospital with serious injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening. Two children, ages eight and six were examined at the scene of the crash by EMS, and released to their parents, uninjured.

Ryan Shane Schuster, 29, of Red Deer was arrested and charged with dangerous operation of motor vehicle causing bodily harm, possession of stolen property over $5,000, and two counts each of failing to comply with conditions and failing to comply with probation.
