She is also charged with robbery and breach of a conditional sentence order which RCMP said were not related to Saturday’s events.

Wahobin was the passenger in the car driven by Brydon Bryce Whitstone, 22, that rammed a police vehicle on Saturday evening during the chase.

Whitstone was then shot by an officer which RCMP said was “in response to the driver’s actions following the pursuit.”

Police performed life-saving measures on Whitstone until paramedics arrived.
