A driver who was trying to give RNC the slip ended up worse off after plunging his car into a pond.
RNC clocked the driver speeding near Conception Bay South around 11:00 last night, but the car took off as soon as officers flashed the lights.
Police tracked down the vehicle a second time and the driver tried to get away again, except he wasn’t familiar with the area and ended up plunging the vehicle into Seal Cove Pond.
The 19-year-old, who was not injured, was charged with flight from police and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.
Once removed from the pond, the vehicle was impounded.
