Alberta RCMP says a 41-year-old woman from Edmonton has been charged for dangerous driving while allegedly fleeing from police.
Mounties say around 11:10 p.m. on Oct. 4, officers noticed a vehicle travelling at high speeds on Anthony Henday Drive.
Photo radar allegedly clocked the vehicle travelling at 166 km/h in an 80 km/h construction zone. Following this, the Mounties tried to conduct a traffic stop, but the vehicle fled at speeds over 200 km/h.
A short time later, the vehicle was spotted by EPS Air-1 on Highway 16 through Edmonton, before travelling back into Strathcona County.
As the vehicle was continuing to be driven at high speed and erratically, RCMP and EPS conducted a coordinated response, and were able to safely disabled the suspect vehicle on Highway 16, east of Highway 21, and the driver was taken into custody.
Since then, 41-year-old Allichia Gordon of Edmonton, has been charged with flight from police and dangerous operation.
