There was another incident in the city of failing to stop for police. On Friday, around 7 p.m., police were called to the 400 block of 12th Street East for a report of a gunshot. When officers located the suspect vehicle at the intersection of 6th Avenue East and 15th Street East, they attempted to box the vehicle in, but the suspect vehicle began to drive, collided with a cop car and fled the scene. The Prince Albert Police Service said officers did not pursue the vehicle to ensure public safety as traffic was heavy at the time. Police did eventually find a vehicle matching the suspect vehicle’s description later that night, but again the vehicle fled and police did not pursue. The vehicle is described as a black Audi with Saskatchewan license plate 344 NUP.
