A man wanted on a Canada-wide warrant has been arrested in Victoria.
Rourke Desmanche was spotted early Sunday morning in the 700-block of Pembroke Street by a Victoria Police K9 unit.
He made a motion to run, according to police, but stopped after the officer indicated his police dog would be set loose.
Desmanche then complied and was taken into custody where he is being held for court.
