A Collingwood, Ont., faces charges, including flight from police, following a traffic stop in Cobourg early Monday.
Cobourg Police Service say around 12:15 a.m., officers on patrol observed a vehicle with reported stolen licence plates.
Officers activated their emergency equipment to initiate a traffic stop, but police allege the driver failed to stop and fled at a high rate of speed.
Police were able to identify the driver and discontinued the pursuit, and the subsequent investigation led to the arrest of a man.
Robert Morrison, 60, of Collingwood, is charged with possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000, flight from police, dangerous driving and operating a motor vehicle while prohibited.
Morrison was released on an undertaking with conditions and with a future court date in Cobourg, police said.
