REGINA – Police unsuccessfully deployed a taser early Monday morning before eventually taking a man into custody.
Police attempted to pull over a vehicle that failed to stop at a 4-way stop on Pasqua Street and 7th Avenue, but it accelerated through a red light on 7th Avenue and Lewvan Drive.
The abandoned vehicle was then spotted by police, and a canine unit was able to track down the suspects in a nearby back alley.
Police ordered one man who was attempting to flee to stop, but when the suspect continued running at police, they tried to tase him. The weapon had no effect on the suspect and he continued to run.
The canine unit tracked down the 31 year-old man a short time later and he was arrested. Police also arrested another 28 year-old man nearby.
Thirty-one year-old Allen Daniel Guenther of Regina is facing numerous charges including Flight from an Officer and three charges for Failing to Comply.
Twenty-eight year-old Calvin Wayne Nagy is also facing Failure to Comply charges.
