A 47-year-old man is in custody after a series of dangerous driving incidents, involving crashing into a downtown Sudbury building and allegedly attempting to run over a police officer who was on foot.
It started just after 7 a.m. Tuesday morning when officers were called to an Elm Street business after the crash.
"Information provided was that a vehicle had struck the front of the building and the driver had attempted to hit an employee with the vehicle before fleeing the scene," Greater Sudbury Police Service said in a news release March 5.
"The employee was not injured."
When police found the suspect's vehicle on Santala Road in Walden, the driver started doing 'donuts' in a field causing substantial property damage.
He then drove into the bush to get away.
When additional officers arrived, he started to rev the engine of the vehicle he was driving and then attempted to run over an officer who was on foot.
