Early Friday evening, the tactical support unit was called out to help the guns and gangs unit execute two high-risk search warrants. No further details were released by police.
At around 4:25 a.m. on Saturday, police received a call about a suspicious vehicle that had been chased out of a farmyard and was entering the north end of the city.
Officers determined the vehicle had been stolen from the Rosthern, Sask., area and attempted to stop it. However, the vehicle was driven at a high rate of speed and the chase was terminated due to safety concerns.
The air support unit (ASU) kept an eye on the stolen automobile as it hit a parked vehicle on Matheson Drive, at which time two people ran from the vehicle. The ASU directed ground units to the area where, with the help of the canine unit, two men were taken into custody.
A 20-year-old man received medical treatment for injuries consistent with a police dog bite.
