Teen faces charges as Langley RCMP break up street race – BC


Langley, B.C., RCMP said they were forced to stun a 16-year-old as they broke up a street race on Friday night.

Police said officers found 200 teens and young adults street racing and stunting just after 11 p.m. on Gloucester Way and used pepper spray to disperse the crowd.

They put a teen in the back of a squad car and police said the crowd set the suspect free in the chaos but a police dog later tracked the teen down.
