Speeding driver flees police then breaks down – Liverpool

On May 2 at 10:54 p.m., members of Queens District RCMP were conducting RADAR enforcement when they noticed a vehicle travelling at 130 km/hr on Hwy. 103. The police officer activated the emergency equipment on the police vehicle and attempted to stop the vehicle, however the suspect sped away.

Police followed the suspect for a short distance, when it became obvious the suspect was having trouble with his vehicle. The bumper fell off​ then the vehicle started to smoke, and the driver pulled over. The RCMP officer arrested the 23-year-old male driver of the car for several Criminal Code and Nova Scotia Motor Vehicle Act offences. Lucas Greek of Bridgewater has been charged with:

  • Flight from Police
  • Driving While Prohibited
  • Dangerous Driving
  • Breach of Recognizance
  • Operating an Unregistered Vehicle
  • Operating a Motor Vehicle Without Insurance
  • Operating a Motor Vehicle Without a Valid Safety Inspection

Greek appeared in Bridgewater Provincial Court today and was remanded. He will return to court on May 8.
