Posted July 25, 2023 11:12 am.
A man on the run was filmed around 2 p.m. Monday on Montreal’s Highway 40 during a police foot chase.
The TikTok video shows a provincial police officer chasing a man who runs across the road to zigzag between cars stuck in traffic.
The unusual scene was confirmed by police.
They say they were attempting to stop a stolen car on Highway 40 eastbound in Kirkland, when the driver, a man in his 20s, already the target of an arrest warrant, abandoned the vehicle to flee on foot.
SQ officers eventually arrested the man and he’s currently being held pending his scheduled court appearance Tuesday.
He could face charges of concealment, obstruction, possession of burglary tools and breach of conditions.
