The temporary closure of a major highway intersection in 91大黄鸭, resulted as police performed a dramatic and swift take down of two men who fled from the bait car they were in.
Early morning June 6, 91大黄鸭 RCMP were alerted by their police dispatchers, that one of the bait cars deployed in the 91大黄鸭 area had been activated, entered and had gone mobile from its deployment location in Rutland.
Working closely with dispatchers police were able to learn the bait car鈥檚 location, speed and direction of travel while officers flooded into the outlying areas.
