Two Calgary men are in custody after a stolen car fled police on the Trans-Canada Highway.
On Monday, RCMP found two suspects rummaging through unlocked vehicles in Banff.
The men ran off, and drove away in a stolen vehicle.
Police found the car a short time later but it sped out of the resort town and headed east.
Canmore RCMP helped lay down a spike belt but the suspects drove over it and continued toward Calgary. The car then drove over a second spike belt.
Calgary police and the HAWCS helicopter joined the chase as the suspect vehicle made its way closer to the city.
The car was finally stopped and an 18 and a 20 year old were taken into custody.
Both are facing multiple charges and are well known to police.
