Man Facing A Number Of Charges After Two Police Vehicles Damaged

A 46-year-old man was held in custody over the weekend after two Regional Police cars suffered damage while trying to stop a vehicle.

Police say it all began when officers tried to pull over a vehicle for a routine traffic stop on George Street in Sydney shortly before 11:00 on Saturday night.

Police chased the vehicle and say it was later found near Brickyard Road on the Louisbourg Highway.

They say that’s when two cruisers suffered minor damage.

The man is facing a number of charges including refusing to provide a breath sample, obstruction and resisting arrest, assault with a weapon and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.
