Police say the chase started after officers tried to pull over what they’re calling a suspicious vehicle near McPhillips Street and Winnipeg Avenue around 12:49 a.m.

They say the vehicle eventually stopped after a stop stick was used to deflate its tires and it crashed into a snow bank at Arlington Street and Church Avenue.

Three suspects then fled from the vehicle on foot, but all three were found with help from the tactical support team and police dogs.

A search of the suspects found six ounces of meth and 21 rounds of ammunition, police say.

Police says they’re still investigating to determine if the suspects’ vehicle was stolen.
