A Paradise man has been arrested after allegedly crashing into two other vehicles in the town yesterday morning.
RNC officers out on patrol around 11:30 saw a pickup truck being driven in a dangerous manner.
Police did not immediately pull the vehicle over because it was not safe to do so.
As officers were searching for the pickup, they spotted it abandoned on Topsail Road after it had collided with two other vehicles.
Police fanned out to try and find the suspect, who then returned to his truck and tried to flee the area.
Thirty-six-year-old Chad Quilty was arrested on charges of dangerous driving, two counts of leaving the scene of an accident and breach of release order.
He was also issued several tickets and had his pickup seized and impounded.
