A 17 year old on a motorbike in Barrie is facing several charges after a police chase.
Police in Barrie got a complaint about the motorcycle being driven erratically at about 5:30 PM on
Sunday in a neighbourhood in the city's west side.
The driver wouldn't pull over when police hit their lights, and sped off down a residential street.
He eventually dropped the bike, but not before riding up onto a sidewalk and nearly running down a
pedestrian who was pushing a stroller.
He also ran the bike into a police cruiser.
Police say a small knife fell from the driver's pocket as he fell from the bike and that he struggled with
officers as he was taken into custody.
He's facing a bail hearing later today on charges of dangerous driving, possession of marijuana and
resisting arrest.
