    Escape from custodyOn Saturday just after midnight,

    Merritt RCMP attempted to stop a vehi-cle for an infraction when the driveraccelerated and took off speeding weston Hwy 8, in excess of 120km/h.

    The vehicle was seen headed upMammette Lake Rd, and turned onto adirt road. When a second police vehicleattempted to stop it, the driver againtook off, only stopping after running intoa farmers fence. The driver, 19-year oldMark Dewar, exited the vehicle which

    was stolen and began running, butwas tackled by one of the officers andtaken into custody. Later that day, at6:30pm, Dewar complained of medicalissues while in cells and was transportedto NVGH. At 8:30pm, policed received acall from the guard at the hospital advis-ing that Dewar had escaped on foot,wearing a set of handcuffs on one armand leg shackles. Police dog serviceswere called, but couldnt find any trace.

    On Monday at 1pm, an officer spot-ted Dewar riding a bike in a back alleynear Coldwater Ave. He fled on foot andwas pursued by the officer for several

    blocks. Calls from the public helped tolocate Dewar and he was eventuallycaught near the Coldwater River andHouston St. He now faces charges ofescape lawful custody, possess stolen

    property over $5000, dangerous opera-tion of a motor vehicle, breach of proba-tion, and flight from a police officer.

    Police want to thank the public whocalled in and assisted in the arrest.

    Canadian CountryMusic Hall of Fame

    A year behind schedule, the CCMHall of Fame will open next month intime for the Great Canadian Bike Rally &Mountainfest, though on a shoestring

    budget according to Walk of Stars presi-dent Ron Sanders. An agreement wasfinally reached with the CanadianCountry Music Assoc. & the NationalMusic Centre which owns the memora-

    bilia associated with the Hall of Frame,the collection left by Gary Buck.

    Chris Langhaug was MWOS leadnegotiator, and he said last weekend: Itis indeed very satisfying to see this com-plex issue resolved to everyone's satisfaction, after over three years of working onthis project. With our strong, newly formed alliance and friendship with theNational Music Centre, it further allows us to become involved in some of NMC'svery progressive, and very exciting, longer term plans to be announced very soon."

    Bacon and Eggs Bacon and eggs walk into a bar after a long day of being baconand eggs. They walk up to the bartender and ask for a beer. The bartender takes

    one look at them and says, "Sorry fellas, but we don't serve breakfast."
