The Weyburn Police Service were notified of a possible domestic disturbance in a local business on Thursday. Prior to attending the 22-year-old male had fled on foot. Thanks to the keen observations of the Weyburn police dispatch to a message that had been received, a 30-year-old female was taken into custody at the scene and is facing charges of possession of a stolen vehicle and possession of a drug (Crystal Meth).
Within a short time and while still searching for the male a vehicle was reported stolen from a local food outlet. Even prior to this vehicle being reported as stolen the Weyburn police, while on patrol, observed this vehicle being driven erratically and attempted to conduct a traffic stop. This began a very short police pursuit north of Weyburn which was terminated when the vehicle entered onto a grid road and too great a hazard was created by the dust.
Within an hour of stopping the chase, the Fillmore RCMP, who were aware of the stolen vehicle, located the vehicle and driver who was arrested without incident. A 22-year-old male from Manitoba is facing numerous charges including possession of a stolen vehicle, theft of a vehicle, dangerous driving, flight from police while being pursued, possession of a drug (Crystal Meth), and various breaches of court conditions. Both the female and male were remanded in custody and made a court appearance in Weyburn on June 14.
