Suspected impaired driver flees police in West Kelowna

WEST KELOWNA – RCMP are looking for a man they say fled a traffic stop in West Kelowna today.

A media release from Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey says RCMP responded to reports of a possible impaired driver in the 1500 block of Merlot Drive around 1 p.m. today, Sept. 28.

“Police are investigating the possibility that this suspect may be linked to additional criminal activity in the West Kelowna area,” O’Donaghey says in the release.

The suspect is described as a Caucasian male, approximately 5'7" tall, a slender 140 lbs, with short hair. He was last seen wearing grey sweat pants, black T-shirt and flat brimmed hat.

West Kelowna RCMP ask that the public report all suspicious activity to police.
