A 21-year-old Dauphin man has been arrested after being wanted on an unendorsed arrest warrant.

Mounties were conducting patrols along Main Street Monday afternoon when they spotted the suspect walking.

He initially escaped on foot but was eventually tracked down, with police seizing crack cocaine, illicit pills and a large amount of Canadian cash in his possession, as well as a handgun that he allegedly tossed onto a roof as he was escaping.

Among the charges laid against Jayden Peters are carrying a concealed weapon, possession for the purpose of trafficking, possession of property obtained by crime, resisting arrest, and several firearms-related offences. 

Peters has been remanded into custody.
