The Canadian Press, 20 Sep, 2018 06:40 PM
    VANCOUVER — An Oregon man faces charges of dangerous operation of a vehicle and flight from a peace officer after a police chase from the Canadian border into Vancouver.
     
     
    Police say Crown counsel has approved the charges against 21-year-old Colin Patrick Wilson.
     
     
    Vancouver police say they were notified by Surrey RCMP on Saturday that a man driving a pickup truck with Oregon licence plates allegedly drove through the border without stopping and was speeding towards Vancouver.
     
     
    When officers in Vancouver spotted the truck they attempted to pull it over, but police say the driver didn't stop and officers pursued.
     
     
    The chase ended with the truck crashed into a car, resulting in minor injuries for the man driving the car.
