KAMLOOPS — Kamloops RCMP are on the lookout for a suspect after a wild pursuit on the Yellowhead Highway north of the city this afternoon.

Shortly after 1:30, a Mountie attempted to pull over an SUV inside the city that had rolled through a stop sign.

The driver took off, hitting Highway 5 northbound and occasionally driving on the wrong side of the highway.

Investigating officers found the subject vehicle near Rayleigh and tried to box it in, but the driver hit the passenger side of a police vehicle and escaped once again.

The last time the SUV was seen, it was northbound toward Barriere.
