He was then charged with stunt driving and driving while suspended, police say.

His driver’s licence was confiscated and vehicle impounded for seven days.

If convicted, he could face a fine anywhere from $2, 000 to $10, 000.

He was released from custody on a summons to appear in court at a later date.
