Suspect arrested short time later
Failing to stop for a stop sign, landing a driver in a whole heap of trouble.
Police says an officer stopped a Cadillac yesterday morning just before 9:00 in St. Catharines, in the area of Woodrow Street and Dunvegan Road.
The motorist did not have a driver's licence and then gave the officer a fake name and date of birth.
When the officer questioned him further, the driver sped away, hitting a police cruiser and narrowly missing a pedestrian.
The car came to a stop after it struck a concrete pole.
But that didn't deter the driver who ran into a nearby wooded area.
He was arrested near Carriage Road and Rampart Drive a short while later.
Police then determined his driver’s licence had been suspended and he was wanted for failing to comply with a release order and failing to comply with probation.
24 year old Corey Randolph Davidson of Thorold is facing a laundry list of charges.
