Police said they were called around 6 a.m. about an erratic vehicle. They found a speeding vehicle and tried to pull it over, but said the driver refused to stop and continued to drive erratically, almost crashing into an oncoming vehicle.

With the help of a tire deflation device, officers were able to stop the vehicle, but said the driver refused to leave and had to be removed from the vehicle before he could be arrested.

The 20-year-old motorist, from Yorkton, Sask., blew over the legal limit on a breath test, police said.

He has been charged with fleeing from a peace officer, resisting a peace officer, driving carelessly, disobeying a traffic control device, driving without insurance, driving an unregistered vehicle and operating a motor vehicle while over the legal alcohol limit.
