Three people face charges following a police chase that started on the Ebb & Flow First Nation.

Ste Rose RCMP attempted to pull over a vehicle around 10:40 on Wednesday morning, but the vehicle refused to stop.

The suspects eventually went off the road and attempted to hide in brush north of Plumas near Road 462. 

Mounties arrested two of the suspects but needed the assistance of Marook the Police Dog to locate and arrest the third suspect a short distance away. 

A search of the third suspect resulted in the seizure of four grand in cash, while a bag found near the vehicle contained 223 grams of cocaine, 30 grams of crack cocaine, and 957 grams meth.

  33-year-old Edward Sutherland is in custody, facing a number of charges including flight from police, resisting arrest, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, and two counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking. 

A 25-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman were also charged with resisting arrest and possession for the purpose of trafficking. 

They have been released and are due in Dauphin court on February 27th.
