Police in Surrey say they arrested a man yesterday for ramming a police vehicle.

Surrey R-C-M-P says the S-U-V also hit another vehicle that was stopped and later drove into oncoming traffic as police were in pursuit. 

Mounties say they found the S-U-V at King George and 108 Avenue, and the driver ran away on foot before being hit with a Taser and arrested, facing potential charges of flight from police, dangerous driving and assaulting police officers
