One of three RCMP vehicles damaged in Sunday's incident.

One man has been arrested after ramming three Surrey RCMP vehicles in a stolen truck. 

Just before 11 a.m. Sunday, Surrey RCMP were notified of a suspicious vehicle in the 8600 block of 141 Street in Surrey.

The occupants were apparently breaking into parked cars and it turned out the suspicious vehicle was itself stolen. 

RCMP were initially unable to locate the vehicle, but around 11:30 a.m. it was seen in the 8200 block of King George Blvd. with at least two people inside. 

While RCMP waited for backup to arrive, the occupants took off, slamming into and severely damaging three police vehicles. 

After hitting the third vehicle, the stolen truck became undriveable. The passenger fled on foot before the truck came to a stop and the driver, a 23-year-old man from Surrey was arrested at the scene.

Inside the truck a variety of what appeared to be stolen property was located.

The driver, will be appearing in Surrey Provincial court on  a number of charges.  

Surrey RCMP is now asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident/collisions that occurred in the 8200 block of King George Boulevard to contact RCMP at 604-599-0502 or to call Crime Stoppers. 

They are also asking anyone who may have had their vehicle broken into in Surrey on the morning of Jan. 4 to report the theft.
