Sudbury police searching for suspect in dangerous driving incident
Greater Sudbury Police have released a photo of a person they say escaped by driving their motor vehicle on a sidewalk past pedestrians and then the wrong way down a one-way street.
The suspect was driving a black and purple motor vehicle when the incident took place Aug. 29.
"An officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop on Elgin Street at St. Anne Road as the vehicle was being driven without any licence plates," police said in a news release Thursday.
"The driver fled on the motor vehicle, jumping the curb onto the sidewalk where pedestrians were walking. The driver then drove the wrong way down a one-way street at a high rate of speed."
Police said they were releasing the photo because they "have exhausted all other investigative avenues to identify the driver."
Anyone with information about the identity of the driver is asked to contact police at 705-675-9171 or Crime Stoppers at 705-222-8477.
