A man is in the lockup after he chose to hit the gas instead of the brake after police flashed their lights on him.
RNC tried to stop the car in the east end of St. John’s at about 6:00. They caught up with the 26-year-old later, and charged him with flight from police and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. He was also cited for having no insurance or driver’s license.
The suspect will appear in court today.
