SASKATOON – Police in Saskatoon are reporting a rather unusual case that saw them catch their suspect — but lose their car.
Police say officers were patrolling an area west of downtown Sunday morning when a drunk man who was carrying open liquor traipsed onto the road in front of them.
Police arrested the man after a brief chase on foot — only to discover the police vehicle had been stolen while they were gone.
They say the vehicle was found about 15 minutes later in a back alley a couple of blocks north of where it was parked.
Investigators say the matter is still being looked into.
Police did not say if the drunk man is facing charges.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 29, 2025.
