A 27-year-old man is facing more than a dozen charges after fleeing from police during a traffic stop on Wednesday afternoon.
Police say they attempted to pull a vehicle over around 2:30 p.m. in the area of Kingston Road and St. Clair Avenue East when the driver of the vehicle fled the scene and later collided with another vehicle five kilometres away near Guildwood Parkway.
Police say no one was seriously injured in that crash.
