Mounties in Saskatchewan managed to catch up with a Calgary neo-Nazi wanted in connection with a bombing, but he managed to flee after they learned who he was.
Police say Kyle Robert McKee, 24, wanted on Canada-wide warrants for attempted murder, was parked in a truck on a gravel road south of Regina about 2 p.m. when RCMP approached the vehicle.
There was also a 17-year-old in the vehicle.
He identified himself and showed his Alberta driver's licence.
But when the Mountie returned to his vehicle to check his name, McKee and the youth sped away.
They were last seen southbound on Hwy. 6.
McKee's vehicle is a red 1996 Dodge Dakota with Alberta plate TEB 713.
McKee, 24, faces two counts of attempted murder, possessing explosives, and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose in connection with a bomb attack in northeast Calgary last Saturday.
RCMP in Portage la Prairie, Man., have arrested another 17-year-old who is charged in the bombing.
McKee is white, 5-foot-9 and 140 lb. with a slim build. He has blue eyes and a shaved head.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at 911, 403-266-1234, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
