High Speed Chase Ends With Arrest

On August 31, 2023, officers with Patrol Services charged 40-year-old Blake Hudson with flight from a peace officer, dangerous operation, and several other offences.

Around 2:40 a.m., officers observed a vehicle with no front licence plate on St. Andrews Terrace. Officers activated emergency lights and attempted a traffic stop but the driver did not stop for police. The driver then drove through a stop sign on Edinburgh Street and continued at a high rate of speed. Police did not pursue the vehicle to preserve officer and public safety.

A short time later, officers located the vehicle at a residence in the 200 block of Beverly Street and the person who had been driving the vehicle was standing outside. They were identified as the accused and arrested.

A subsequent search found the accused to be in possession of another person’s driver’s licence and approximately one gram of what is believed to be fentanyl.

The accused is charged with:

  • Flight from Peace Officer
  • Dangerous Operation
  • Possession of Identity Document
  • Possession of Schedule I Substance
  • Failure to Display Two Plates (under the Highway Traffic Act)

The accused was released on an undertaking and is scheduled to appear in court on November 6, 2023.

  1. This catch and release practice has to go, along with inept Trudeau that has squandered billions like a drunken sailor.

    1. Agreed. If Trudeau wants to prevent the election disaster that is looming ahead, he needs to leave. Sooner than later.
