-

Police say a man found hiding in a child's playhouse, allegedly holding a knife, was arrested and charged hours after a high-speed chase that saw three cruisers struck. Police in Durham region, outside Toronto, say the incident happened in Uxbridge on Tuesday night, after two men were reported to be fighting. They say one of the men sped away in a pickup truck, and then allegedly reversed into a police cruiser that had been following him, before hitting a second cruiser twice, striking a third police car and speeding away. Nobody was injured. Early Wednesday morning, someone called police to report the man was on their property. When officers arrived, he fled through backyards and hid in a playhouse. A 31-year-old from Uxbridge faces multiple charges including flight from a peace officer and dangerous driving.
