On July 7 at 9:10 p.m. an officer patrolling in Kings District engaged his emergency lights to stop a vehicle. The driver tried to get away driving dangerously and drove through a farmer’s field damaging the crop. He was later located and arrested at his home.
The youth has been charged with:
- Mischief damage to property
- Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle
- Flight from police
He will appear in court later today to answer to these charges.
“Thankfully this is a situation where no one got hurt. Fleeing police, damaging property with your car and driving in a way that puts the public in danger could have serious outcomes that go beyond even criminal charges,” said Cpl Gavin Moore, the PEI RCMP Media Relations Officer.
