Driver flees scene of check stop in the South Cariboo

100 Mile House RCMP spent some of the long weekend conducting a check stop in the Lac La Hache area.

Sargeant Brian Lamb said on September 1st a vehicle was stopped where the male driver could not provide his driver licence and provided a fictitious name.

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.”
