A man did his best to elude the long arm of the law last night but metro police caught up with him on foot just after midnight.
The RNC tried to pull him over in his vehicle in the west end of St. John’s, but the 40-year-old sped away. He stopped the vehicle a short distance away, then fled on foot.
Police quickly caught up with him and charged him with dangerous operation and flight from police.
He was released to appear in court at a later date.
