25-year old Farbn Japow is scheduled to be back in provincial court on September 3rd.
He was slated to to trial last week but a voire dire was held over two days and a new trial date was set.
Japow is facing numerous charges, including possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose, flight from police, resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer, and dangerous operation of a vehicle.
The charges were laid in August of 2024.
RCMP say they attempted to stop a vehicle on Carson Avenue on August 3,2024 but the white SUV then took off at a high rate of speed.
Police say it was then seen driving dangerously on Anderson Drive and just about caused a collision.
The vehicle was eventually stopped while heading south on Highway 97 with the use of a spike belt.
RCMP say the driver attempted to flee the scene but was quickly apprehended with the aid of a police dog.
Police say they seized a replica handgun, more than 1.3 kilograms of suspected fentanyl, other assorted illicit drugs, ammunition, and more than 7 thousand dollars in cash.
