LETHBRIDGE, AB – Members from Fort Macleod RCMP and the Southern Alberta Crime Reduction Unit worked together to put three people behind bars.

On Wednesday, July 15 at approximately 2:23 pm, officers in Fort Macleod tried to stop a moving vehicle, but it allegedly continued at a high speed and crashed through the fence of a business on the 400 block of 12 Street.

Almost an hour later, police located the vehicle on Range Road 262 near Township Road 64.

Using a tire deflation device and help from a local who blocked a portion of the road with a large work truck, the suspects were apprehended.

Kyle Dean Jordan, 27, of Lethbridge, faces charges of dangerous driving, flight from police, driving while prohibited Canada-wide, two counts of breach of conditions, and possession of fentanyl.
