Over 3,000 stuffed animals were tossed onto the ice.
This Regina taxi ride won’t be resulting in a five-star review.
At around 2:48 on Saturday morning, the Regina Police Service responded to reports of a stolen Regina Co-op taxi in the 1100 block of Angus Street.
Once police located the taxi, officers used a traffic stop to try and halt the vehicle, but it drove away.
Shortly afterwards, the stolen taxi was spotted as it rammed into the front doors of a business in the 2200 block of Broad Street. Police believed the vehicle was immobile and approached the taxi, but it began to drive again.
Police observed the vehicle driving at slow speeds and tried to use a spike belt to stop the vehicle.
At around 3:15 a.m., the taxi drove through the front of another business — this one in the 1800 block of Hamilton Street.
Now with significant damage, the taxi drove north on Hamilton Street before ending up on 11th Avenue, where the taxi drove through the south entrance doors of the Cornwall Centre.
When officers began to approach the taxi again inside the mall, it drove off once again, this time through the north entrance of the mall near Saskatchewan Drive. That’s when the vehicle got hung up on the stairs and the driver, a 32-year old female, was taken into custody.
On Sunday, police said the woman had been charged with four counts of mischief over $5,000, two counts of failure to comply with a condition of an undertaking. and one count each of robbery, evading police, dangerous driving, mischief under $5,000, impaired operation, and refusal to comply with a demand.
She’s to appear in court Monday.
