A 40-year-old man is facing several charges, including impaired driving, after a number of vehicles were damaged in north Edmonton early Friday morning.

Police were called to the area of 114 Street and 139 Avenue at around 2:45 a.m.

It was reported to police that a man driving a white cargo van had struck three parked vehicles at a high speed, causing the van to roll.

The driver got out of the vehicle and ran off, police said. A witness in the area was able to track the suspect, who was later arrested by Edmonton police.

Police said the van and licence plate were both reported stolen in July 2017.
