Three armed men, including one wanted for robbery and one on probation, were arrested by RCMP in northern Saskatchewan following a car chase and pursuit on foot.Saskatchewan RCMP’s Prince Albert Detachment, Prince Albert Warrant Enforcement and Suppression Team (WEST) and Prince Albert Crime Reduction Team (CRT) were conducting patrols on Sturgeon Lake First Nation on June 11 to locate a wanted male.An officer observed a truck known to be associated with the male, activated their emergency lights and attempted a traffic stop. The vehicle did not stop, so officers set up a tire deflation device in its path. The truck drove over it. Its two front tires were deflated but the truck did not stop for police.It continued driving on its rims until coming to a stop in a grassy field. The three occupants fled on foot and officers followed them down a heavily-brushed hill toward a slough. They observed one suspect enter the slough and arrested him as he stood in knee-deep water. They located a second suspect hiding in some brush. Saskatchewan RCMP Police Dog Services arrived on scene and police dog Rogue located the third suspect, who had tried to disguise himself by covering himself with leaves, branches and dirt.Further investigation determined two loaded semi-automatic firearms had been thrown from the moving truck as it fled from police.
