Sometime on December 24, 2013, a Chevrolet Cavalier was stolen while parked in the 700 block of Alfred Avenue.
At approximately 10:50 p.m., patrol members observed the stolen vehicle travelling in a northbound direction on Andrews Street near Flora Avenue. Several Patrol Units attempted to safely stop the stolen vehicle near the intersection of McGregor Street and Royal Crescent. It was at this time the driver of the stolen vehicle collided with the rear end of a police cruiser. The impact caused a secondary collision to occur with another civilian vehicle causing damage to both. There were no injuries.

Again, the suspect attempted to evade police. Officers successfully secured the stolen vehicle and prevented it from proceeding any further.
