SACKVILLE – A 36-year-old man has been arrested after a marked RCMP patrol car was stolen in New Brunswick and driven across the provincial border into Nova Scotia.

Mounties stopped the vehicle around 3 p.m. on Highway 104 near Amherst, N.S., using a tire deflation device to puncture the vehicles tires.
Haché says two officers sustained minor injuries while arresting the man driving the vehicle.
