A Calgary man is facing a number of charges after allegedly trying to evade police in a stolen vehicle on the QE 2 highway near Innisfail.
Sunday morning, a number of drivers were concerned after witnessing a north bound pick-up truck speeding excessively, swerving and hitting the ditch at least twice.
RCMP attempted to pull the vehicle over, but the driver sped off on a dirt road.
The vehicle eventually got stuck on a hill and police were able to arrest the driver, who tried to flee on foot.

– Possession of stolen property over $5000
– Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle
– Flight from police
– Having care and control of a motor vehicle while impaired
– Having care and control of a motor vehicle while impaired over ..08
