Three People Arrested in Forcible Confinement Investigation
Prince George, B.C. – Three people are behind bars in connection with a forcible confinement and assault investigation in Prince George.
Cpl. Craig Douglass says the investigation began yesterday following allegations of the forcible confinement and assault of a woman at a residence in Prince George.
He says officers located and arrested three people thought to be involved in the “violent crimes.”
“Search warrants have been executed at two Prince George residences, a motel room in Prince George, a residence in a neighbouring community and a vehicle,” says Douglass. “Due to the sensitivity of the investigation and safety concerns for the victim, more specific information will not be provided at this time.”
In the meantime, he says all three suspects have been held in custody overnight and will likely make their first appearance in court later today.
Douglass says the investigation is continuing and that further arrests are possible.
“These targeted violent acts are related to the drug trade and all those involved are well known to police,” he says. “The victim is recovering from non-life threatening injuries.”

Double homicide just days ago, now this all related to the drug trade and gangs, no wonder Prince George is ranked 3rd highest in the country for crime severity! And you know what? It’s not just Prince George!
Williams Lake ranked 6th nationally on Canada’s crime severity index, Fort St. John ranked 11th, Prince Rupert 8th, Terrace 10th, etc. Heck even the playground for the rich and famous Whistler, BC ranks 19th out 239 Canadian cities.
So why are a disproportionately large number of BC cities ranking so high on the national crime severity index? We have had this faux Liberal Government in BC for 16 consecutive years and what have they done so far to reduce crime? Absolutely nothing, under this government crime is proliferating and crime severity is sky-rocketing!

Think I am going to log into a very popular Prince George facebook site, where nothing bad or negative is allowed. Yes I just want to tune out the reality of the situation and pretend everything A-OK! Funny thing is, when we don’t acknowledge our city and province’s problems, when will they ever get fixed?
Is that the Sheep R Us Facebook site?
