Lamb said while speaking with the male he fled the scene in his vehicle.

Members subsequently located the vehicle at a house in Lac La Hache.

“Police did not locate the male,” Lamb said, “but have since identified him and will be following up with proposed charges of obstruction and flight from police.”
