Medicine Hat News One man has been charged with stolen property offences after an incident Wednesday.

The suspect fled on foot, and the K9 unit was brought in to track him. This led police to the nearby Co-op, where it was learned the suspect had gotten a taxi. Police were able to then get the address of where he was taken, and arrest him there. A stolen ID was found in the vehicle. The accused remains in custody, awaiting a bail hearing. 7-6
