Three local people are facing charges after they allegedly fled from OPP officers in Napanee.
Police say Wednesday around 8 p.m., Lennox and Addington OPP officers noticed a vehicle driving in the eastbound lanes of Highway 401 without proper licence plates.
The officers initially stopped the vehicle, but it then allegedly fled while police were away from the car.
