Two suspects in custody following Flight from Police…

PRINCE GEORGE, BC: Two suspects are in custody after a series of incidents during the overnight Friday…

Police say Just before 12:00 PM on Friday August 14, 2020, members of the Prince George RCMP’s Street Crew Unit attempted to execute a traffic stop with a vehicle near the corner of Victoria Street and 15th Avenue (Patricia Blvd). The vehicle was associated to a person with outstanding arrest warrants.

The driver of the vehicle immediately fled north down Victoria Street. In the interest of public safety, officers did not pursue. 

Moments later, RCMP began receiving reports of a two vehicle collision at the intersection of 8th Avenue and Vancouver Street. Frontline officers attended and found the suspect vehicle had collided with another vehicle. The male driver fled on foot and then into another vehicle being driven by another male.  

That vehicle was located near the intersection of 3rd Avenue and Victoria Street. The vehicle was stopped and the two occupants, aged 42 and 31, were taken into custody.

The lone occupant of the vehicle that was struck by the suspect vehicle, was transported to hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

This investigation is in its beginning stages. More information may be released as it becomes available.

If you have any information about these incidents or if you were a witness, please contact the Prince George RCMP at (250)561-3300.
