Lac La Biche mounties charge two after police chase

Lac La Biche mounties say two men were arrested and charged after a pursuit featuring a rammed police car.

The RCMP says on February 21st they were at a home in Kikino looking to arrest a man wanted on charges of armed robbery out of Boyle.

Mounties say when they got close to the home a man and two other passengers fled in a vehicle. RCMP members tried to stop the car near Range Road 130 and Highway 28 with a tire deflation device, but officers say the vehicle avoided it by ramming a police cruiser.
