Authorities have tracked down a suspect who allegedly crashed a Ford F150 into an unmarked RCMP vehicle in Kamloops, B.C., earlier this month.

Kamloops RCMP said someone spotted the man near Comazzetto and Vicars roads and reported him Thursday afternoon, a day after the detachment issued a public appeal for information on the suspect’s possible whereabouts.

“Officers responded to the area and located a suspect fleeing to a nearby commercial establishment,” Cpl. Crystal Evelyn in a newsletter.

“He was taken into custody a short time later with the assistance of the Police Dog Service Unit.”

Evelyn said after the man’s arrest, authorities discovered he was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant.

Kamloops RCMP have not disclosed the nature of the previous alleged offenses that led to the arrest warrant. CTV News has requested more information from the detachment.

Local authorities had been searching for the suspect since Nov. 2, when a Kamloops RCMP officer’s vehicle was struck during an attempted traffic stop.

The detachment said that around 12:35 that morning, an officer spotted an unoccupied pickup truck, which he recognized from two previous investigations; one for not staying at the scene of the accident, the other for running away from the police.

According to RCMP, while she was inside her vehicle, a man got into a pickup truck, hit her and fled.

The police officer was not injured during the incident.

While a suspect has been arrested, Kamloops RCMP said the investigation is ongoing and asked anyone with information to call the detachment at 250-828-3000.
