Just after midnight on May 9, Prince George RCMP received a report of a head-on collision on Highway 16 at Marleau Rd.
Officers and emergency crews went to the scene. Initial witness accounts and evidence from the scene indicated a Chevrolet Impala was driving on the wrong side of the highway and collided head on with a full size pick-up.
The driver of the Impala fled on foot into a wooded area. The investigation led to a near-by retail mall where the suspect was located. The suspect showed signs of being intoxicated and bit one of the officers while in the process of being arrested.
Later that morning a 46 year old Prince George resident was released on an Appearance Notice for court on Aug. 26 of this year, pending charge approval by the B.C. Prosecution Service.
