Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Kemal A. Mericli, Asst. Dist. Atty., Pittsburgh, for Com., appellant.

Richard J. Catalano, Pittsburgh, for appellee.

Before BECK, TAMILIA and HESTER, JJ.


TAMILIA, Judge:

The Commonwealth appeals the trial court's August 9, 1990 Order granting appellee's motion to suppress the firearm discovered in appellee's vehicle.

On August 29, 1988 at approximately 1:25 a.m., Wilkins Township police pursued appellee, Michael A. Merkt, for not paying for gasoline he pumped at a gas station. Because appellee did not stop in response to police sirens and lights, he was eventually forced off the road by two police cars.
