The vehicle didn’t stop but continued north on Idylwyld and then headed up 22nd into oncoming traffic and did manage to hit another vehicle before coming to a stop at Avenue I. No one was injured and two men in the vehicle were taken into custody. A 28 year old Saskatoon man was later released.
A 33 year old man now also faces additional charges of Theft of a Motor Vehicle, Evade Police and Dangerous Operation of a Motor Vehicle.
