Charges are pending against a 33-year-old man in Prince Albert after a cross-town car chase.

The pursuit started at about 3:30 Wednesday morning when police tried to pull over a stolen truck suspected to be involved in a rash of break and enters in the Weldon area and a fuel theft earlier that evening in P-A.

Police say the driver abandoned the vehicle after stopping behind a 15th Street East business and fled on foot.

The chase had started near 28th Street and 6th Avenue West.

The suspect who was on probation for a previous auto theft charge remains in custody.
