Abbotsford police say the driver of a stolen truck is facing eight charges after a pursuit ended with the suspect ramming a police car.
Officers say Joseph Edward Zaworski, 44, has been identified as the driver of a white pickup truck who blew through a traffic stop and drove into a police vehicle on Oct. 2.
The suspect was first spotted driving in the Huntington Road and Ross Road area with a large fuel tank in his truck bed that was spilling fuel, police say. Police add the vehicle failed to stop at a police traffic stop and then was spotted crossing the grassy meridian between westbound and eastbound lanes on Highway 1.
Eventually, officers say the vehicle was brought to a stop with a tire deflation device, leading officers to take the driver into custody.
Dangerous driving, failure to stop and possession of property obtained by crime are a few of the several charges the suspect now faces, police say.
