A 41-year-old Red Deer man was arrested last month after RCMP located a vehicle that was reported stolen.
Officers spotted the vehicle while conducting proactive patrols on March 31. Police attempted to conduct a traffic stop, but the driver fled the scene.
The vehicle was located later that night, abandoned, near a residence in Red Deer. The suspect was identified and arrested without incident – Red Deer RCMP Police Dog Services assisted in trying to locate the suspect.
The suspect is facing a number of charges, including flight from police, dangerous operation of motor vehicle and possession of property obtained by crime.
He was remanded into custody following a judicial interim release hearing. He is scheduled to appear in Alberta Court of Justice in Red Deer on April 19.
