Members of the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS) arrested a 20-year-old woman and charged the suspect with dangerously operating a motor vehicle on Monday.
At approximately 12:10 a.m. on Monday morning members of the community mobilization unit spotted a vehicle that had evaded police earlier in the evening, near 19th Street West and Avenue R South, in Pleasant Hill.
Officers attempted a traffic stop but the vehicle did not yield, according to a statement.
Police then used a tire deflating device at Avenue D and 22nd Street West, which was successful but, again, the car did not stop. It proceeded south on Idylwyld Drive.
The statement says the SPS called off the chase, citing public safety concerns.
