Two Violent Incidents in Dawson Creek

Thursday, November 5, 2015 @ 12:48 PM

Dawson Creek, B.C. –  Two incidents which  happened   over the past  couple of weeks in Dawson Creek may  be related,  or they may not.Yesterday,  RCMP officers responded to a call about shots being fired at a residence in the 1500 block of 99th Avenue in Dawson Creek.    According to police,  a lone gunman  approached the residence and  fire three shotgun rounds into the house.  No one hurt,  and the  three occupants of the  home say  they  believe it was a case of  mistaken identity.   RCMP  are now doing a complete forensic examination of that scene but are aware there has been drug activity in the neighbourhood.

It is not yet clear if that  shots fired incident is related to a  kidnapping and assault that took place  on October 24th.  A man was kidnapped  from the Taylor pub , taken to Dawson Creek,  beaten, bear sprayed and stabbed in the legs. He managed to escape and  was taken to hospital  where he was treated for his injuries.

Police are having some challenges with the two investigations as  those involved  are not  co-operating with police.

Anyone with any information on  either case is asked to call police  or Crime Stoppers.

lol it’s almost as if that whole area of the province is a hellish dump!

If they don’t want to talk then don’t treat their injuries.
