UPDATE: Teenager Charged In Dawson Road Incident

A 15-year old boy is facing a number of charges following an incident on Dawson Road, at the Emerald Greens Golf Course.

Police say the youth had threatened his parent during a family dispute at home, and took off with a pickup truck.

Police eventually found him parked in the driveway of the golf course, and used multiple police vehicles to block him in just before 5:00 yesterday afternoon.

The teenager rammed the police cars several times before being pinned against a trailer.

Police add they had to call in the tactical unit to negotiate with the boy, after several attempts to get him to leave the vehicle failed.

He appeared in court this morning and remains in custody.
