By 250 News

A 28 year old man was apprehended by the RCMP dog today after he fled the scene of an accident at 10am, this morning.

It all started when the Prince George Crime Reduction team spotted a vehicle that was uninsured in the 400 block of George St. Police suspected the driver was a

prohibited driver and the driver bolted.

The man attempted to flee the scene striking a police officer in his vehicle.

That officer was treated and released from PGRH.

The police did not take up the chase at any time due to the events unfolding so quickly , the vehicle however   began running stop signs , onto  3^rd ave , then onto 5^th where it collided with three other vehicles at the intersection of 5^th and highway 97 .

The driver then fled the scene. A 28 year old female passenger was arrested at the scene. A second 18 year old female was arrested nearby as was a 22 year old Prince George male.

While the police dog was on the way to the scene the suspect was tracked to the 300 block of Ruggles St where he broke into a residence. It was at this address that the dog was able to apprehend him. The suspect was taken to PGRH suffering from bite wounds.

Several are in custody; no charges have yet been laid.
