A man was arrested after running from police during a traffic stop at Grange in the early hours of this morning.
Police pulled over a grey station wagon on Seaview Road, Grange at 4.30am on Saturday 12 December. The patrol became suspicious that the driver wasn’t who he said he was and requested a fingerprint scanner be brought to the scene.
On hearing this, the driver did a runner.
Patrols cordoned off the area and called in Police Dog Rusty to assist with the search.
PD Rusty and his handler tracked the suspect through multiple yards before finding him on the roof of a two-storey building in Terminus Street.
The 31-year-old Henley Beach man was arrested and charged with driving while disqualified and stating false details to police.
He was bailed to appear in the Port Adelaide Magistrates Court on 1 February.
His vehicle was impounded for 28 days.
