RCMP have laid charges following a Thursday afternoon pursuit in the St. Leon area. 
    
On Friday, PembinaValleyOnline reported that police had apprehended a 28-year-old man after he was identified as a suspect in a possible break and enter on Main Street in St. Leon. However, he fled in a black truck before police arrived on scene. 
    
Officers found the suspect, but he refused to pull over. Eventually, he was found on a rural road two kilometers from his vehicle, which had gotten stuck in deep snow. 
    
Upon his arrest, police learned the man had several warrants from other provinces. 
    
He has since been charged with two counts each of Flight from Police and Possession of Stolen Property Obtained by Crime, and three counts of Resisting Arrest/Failing to Comply. He was remanded into custody.
    
RCMP continue to investigate.

A 28-year-old man is facing charges after fleeing from police after the vehicle he was driving was identified in a break and enter.
    
According to Manitoba RCMP, officers from the Manitou detachment were called to the B&E on Main Street in St. Leon shortly before 5 p.m. on Thursday. Once there, they were immediately able to locate the suspect vehicle, which fled. Officers followed, but only as far as it was safe to do so.
    
Area patrols eventually relocated the vehicle travelling at a high rate of speed on gravel roads. RCMP say the suspect fled on foot after the vehicle got stuck in thick snow. He was apprehended and arrested. 
    
The investigation is ongoing.

The following security video footage was submitted by Michael Debreuil, and shows RCMP in pursuit of a pick-up truck in La Riviere early Thursday evening.
