Woman Arrested In Police Pursuit

A 29-year-old woman from Lac La Croix First Nation will appear in court next month on several charges, including impaired driving, in connection to a police pursuit on the weekend.

OPP were first called about an impaired driver in the drive-thru of a Fort Frances restaurant early Saturday morning.

With help from Treaty Three Police, officers attempted the stop the vehicle on several occasions as it made it way through town and Couchiching First Nations before officers ended the pursuit for safety reasons.

The driver was later arrested after stopping on Highway 11 near highway 502 for another Treaty Three Officer who was not involved in the initial pursuit.
