A man who tried to steal a City of 麻豆精选 bylaw vehicle didn鈥檛 get too far, thanks to an off-duty RCMP officer.
On Jan. 2, the constable witnessed a bylaw officer running after the vehicle in the downtown area. He picked up the officer in his personal vehicle and followed the stolen car until it stopped in a lane behind the library.
The suspect jumped out of the vehicle and tried to run, but was chased down by the police officer and arrested. Charges of theft and impaired operation of a motor vehicle have been recommended against a 麻豆精选 man.
He was released from custody and will appear in court at a later date.
