KAMLOOPS — Kamloops Mounties are requesting a warrant for a 30 year old man from Barriere in relation to a dangerous driving incident last week.

On Nov. 22, the suspect fled police after officers attempted to pull him over for failing to stop for a stop sign.

The driver, who was in a white SUV,  drove away in a reckless manner before ramming into the passenger side of a police car. 

It’s believed he bought gas from the Heffley Creek Husky just before becoming involved in the pursuit.
