The officers tried to pull the vehicle over but it took off, though they did spot the licence plate numbers.

This led them to the driver’s home where police eventually took the man into custody for impaired driving.

Police say the officers searched him and found a loaded gun. They then searched the home, and say they seized a rifle, ammunition, and a ballistic vest.

A 33-year-old man from Cambridge is facing a number of impaired driving and weapons charges as a result of the investigation.
