Attempting to allegedly run from police has not ended well for a Blenheim man.
The Chatham-Kent Police Service said officers on general patrol spotted a man acting suspiciously on Chatham Street South in Harwich Township early Thursday morning. When the officers approached the man, he ran away.
Following a short chase, officers located the accused and used a Taser to subdue him.
A search of the suspect turned up stolen credit cards and suspected cocaine.
The 40-year-old Blenheim man is charged with trespassing at night, break and enter, possession of stolen property, and possession of a controlled substance. He has been released with conditions and an August court date.
