RCMP have arrested a woman after evading officers near Missinipe.

That’s according to a media release, which states on July 2 at 11:30 a.m., La Ronge RCMP saw a vehicle reported as stolen from Southend travelling on Highway 102 near Missinipe.

Officers attempted a traffic stop, but the vehicle did not stop.

Police again found the vehicle on Highway 2, south of La Ronge, and attempted a second traffic stop. The vehicle did not stop and drove into oncoming traffic, forcing a police vehicle into the ditch. The officer driving the police vehicle was not injured.

The vehicle continued travelling toward the Dore Lake area, where it came to a dead end. Officers set up roadblocks and the driver and sole occupant of the vehicle was arrested without incident.
