57 year old man facing criminal charges after driving into multiple police vehicles
BY , Mar 17, 2021 5:21 PM - REPORT AN ERRORRCMP in Nanaimo say a 57 year old man is facing criminal charges after driving into multiple police vehicles causing damage Monday.
They say the first police vehicle was side-swiped while driving with its siren on for another call, and later the same man appeared to steer his pickup truck into two parked police cars before driving into the side of a building.
After being blocked in, Mounties say the man got out of his truck and charged at an officer.
The officer used a Taser and pepper spray.
Constable Gary O'Brien says in a statement officers have had extensive interactions with the man who's now in custody, and a number of the calls had what O'Brien called a mental health component.
