Dec 27, 2020 9:52 AM RNC officers on the island’s west coast wrapped up Boxing Day, by apprehending and charging a Bay of Islands man who tried to avoid a checkpoint near Corner Brook. It happened around 11:30 p.m. last night near Prince Edward Park, as the Constabulary ran the roadside checkpoint on Route 440. Officers spotted a vehicle turn around in traffic and take off in a northerly direction. Although a patrol vehicle pulled into the path of the fleeing vehicle attempting to stop it, the vehicle refused to stop and continued north. Police did not pursue and its last known location was the town of Irishtown-Summerside.
