McBride , B.C.- One man is  in custody  and  scheduled  to  appear in court tomorrow to  face a number of charges related to an incident on the weekend in McBride.

On Saturday May 27th 2017, McBride RCMP received a report of a suspicious vehicle. The vehicle was seen leaving a residential area at a high rate of speed. A description of the vehicle was provided to police.

McBride RCMP  spotted the  suspect vehicle and tried to  stop  it,  but the  vehicle sped off.  Officers from Valemount and Prince George were called to  assist.

Meantime,  a resident of the area where the vehicle was first spotted, contacted  McBride RCMP  to  report  his home had been broken into and  a number of firearms and ammunition were missing.

Members of the public then  contacted police to say  a suspicious man  had been seen running down Clyde Pit Road.   The Emergency Response Team and Police Dog Service were called to action.

The suspicious  person was located and arrested,  the vehicle  was also discovered  on a de-activated logging road.

Evidence  that  reflected the  reported Break and Enter was gathered.

The suspect is expected to make his first court appearance tomorrow.   Police are  still looking for two others believed to have been involved.

This investigation is ongoing and police are asking anyone with information to contact the McBride RCMP at 250 569 2255 or Crime Stoppers at 1 800 222-8477.
