An RCMP dog helped locate a man suspected of holding up a taxi driver with a syringe this week.
Police dog Cargo tracked down the 23-year-old suspect shortly after a taxi driver reported an attempted robbery in Chilliwack. The driver was dropping off the passenger early on Tuesday when he stuck a needle in his neck and demanded money. The 57-year-old driver managed to fight off the robber and flag down an RCMP officer after the incident.
Cargo tracked down a suspect after the attack and left the man with puncture wounds in his arm. The suspect was treated at hospital for dog bites and has been charged with attempted robbery and resisting arrest.
