The situation deteriorated, however, when RCMP say Friesen assaulted one of the officers and fled the scene.
He’s facing charges including assaulting a police officer, flight from police, theft, and break and enter with intent.
Friesen is described as 5’8″ tall, 172 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
Mounties encourage the public not to approach him but to give them a call instead.
