RCMP say a 28 year old man has been arrested after a crazy chase Remembrance Day. Fillmore detachment was notified of a theft in progress in Creelman around 9:30 Sunday morning when a man was allegedly caught trying to steel fuel from a business. A suspect vehicle was later spotted in an abandoned farm yard and officers decided to end the pursuit due to, they say, the high rate of speed and erratic driving. The vehicle apparently bounded through farmer’s fields and bust through fences. After being too damaged to drive further, the suspect allegedly tried to escape into an oil field structure. Weyburn and Radville RCMP along with the RCMP police dog service combed the area eventually making an arrest. Andrew Bender is facing 19 criminal offences and the investigation continues meanwhile RCMP seized a quantity of stolen property, firearms and illegal drugs.
