Police Report Strange Incident Uptown Saint John


There was a bit of a car chase that started outside City Hall on Chipman Hill late yesterday afternoon but it didn't last that long, winding up outside the courthouse on Peel Plaza right across from police headquarters. 

It began when a young man was seen urinating on Chipman Hill and when police approached he got back in the car, which turned out to be stolen in Edmunston, and took off. 

One person stayed in the car once it stopped at Peel Plaza but the second man ran down the hill, through the pedway towards Harbour Station. He was eventually arrested in a garbage dumpster along City Road.
