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.

The teen is facing a number of charges, including assaulting a police officer.
The mayor of Langley Township told Global News that council will be asking staff to accelerate its report to put a stop to street racing.
“We have a number of trucking companies and other operations in Gloucester that operate overnight,” Eric Woodward said.
“And we have everyday workers trying to try to do their job. And we have this group of people that consistently break the law.”
