Bracebridge OPP officers stopped a car travelling “well over the posted speed” on Highway 11 North in Gravenhurst, at 9:25 p.m. on Feb. 10. 

Officials say the driver was barred from leaving his house on criminal conditions, and fought with officers.

As police dealt with the driver, the passenger allegedly fled the scene on foot, and was caught after midnight.

Both men are in custody awaiting a Feb. 11 bail hearing.
