A man, who is alleged to have stolen a semi-truck, has been arrested in Abbotsford after a tumultuous series of events.
Abbotsford Police Department says that Rory Serna, 28, from Alberta, stole a semi-truck in Abbotsford on Saturday morning and drove it into Chilliwack, where local RCMP tried to help intervene.
“A traffic stop was attempted, but the driver failed to stop for police,” reads a statement from the department.
Police say Serna is “well known” to them.
He then allegedly drove the truck back into Abbotsford, where police say they saw it “colliding with another truck and fleeing the accident scene.”
The other driver was not injured, say police, and due to heavy fog and Serna’s alleged behaviour, they chose not to pursue him and the truck in a chase.
Soon after, the truck crashed again.
