PRINCE GEORGE — Two people were arrested after multiple RCMP vehicles were rammed over the weekend.

Police say it all started early Saturday morning, just after 2 p.m, after they tried to pull over a vehicle near the 7600-block of Gladstone Drive for driving with a license plate that had expired.

The suspect vehicle fled, ramming a police vehicle. They rammed another police vehicle in a cul-de-sac on the 8000-block of St. John Place.

After deploying a spike belt, police were finally able to stop the vehicle on Moriarty Drive. Police arrested the pair – Brent Morgan and Angeline Hammerstrom, both of whom are known to police.

Morgan is facing multiple charges including aggravated assault of a police officer, flight from police, dangerous operation of a conveyance and failure to stop at the scene of an accident.
