RCMP officer charged after high-speed pursuit near Dauphin

Manitoba’s police watchdog has determined an RCMP officer should be charged after taking part in a high-speed pursuit last summer.

On August 29, 2023, an officer observed a motorcycle driving dangerously and at a high rate of speed on Highway 5 near Dauphin.

A pursuit ensued as several attempts to conduct a traffic stop were unsuccessful, and the chase led to several near-collisions.

The Independent Investigation Unit launched a probe into the incident and it’s been determined RCMP Cpl. Kevin Challoner faces a charge of failure to drive with due regard to safety.
