Prince George, B.C.- A 30 year old man and a female are facing a variety of drug and firearm offences  after being arrested Friday.
 
Members of the Prince George GIS Drug Section, Crime Reduction Team and North District Drug Section, allege the couple tried to retrieve a bag which contained 2 loaded hand guns, a Mac 10 sub machine gun with ammunition and 8 ounces of cocaine from a wooded area near the Lower Mud rivr Bridge.
 
Police executed a search warrant at a Gauthier Road resident where they found 2 more ounces of cocaine, 159 flaps of heroin, about 3 lbs of marijuana and other drug trafficking paraphernalia from the residence.
 
Police have also identified fingerprints that were on the container in which the guns were located. Police allege the prints are those of one of the people they believe is a leader of the Game Tight Soldiers. Police also claim this person is a Striker for the Prince George Renegades. This suspect is currently in jail facing numerous other charges.
 
Police have learned that the GTS level and structure can be identified by their GTS tattoos. The lowest level member of the GTS can be identified by a Cross with no other writing. Mid level members of the GTS will have a Cross, GTS and PG insignia (Prince George). The highest level members of the GTS are the “Original Gangsters” who have a Cross, GTS, and OG insignia ( Original Gangster)
 
"Total estimated street value of the illicit drugs, is believed to exceed $40,000. Police believe it is imperative that all facets of society work together to combat issues that are associated to organized crime groups such as the Game Tight Soldiers and the Prince George Renegades. Police request the continued assistance of the general public, to help combat these community issues" stated Cst. R. Forgeron of the Prince George Drug Task Force.

Thankyou, folks, on behalf of my kids, and the rest of us, glad to see some more crap off the streets....
This tattoo labeling thing is hilarious. What a bunch of losers. lol They must really want to go to jail. Good for them.
So, now that we have the ability to expose them, let's take them out of commission and remove them from our community. Easy. Just do it. 25 charges, wait until some lawyer gets a hold of this one and gets it reduced to 5 and out on good behavior. It's all a game and it makes me vomit.
HOW ABOUT SOME PUNISHMENT FOR THESE GUYS??
How about making them WORK while they are in jail instead of watching porn and eating their fill 3 times a day. I might add; when they are incarcerated,they have better health care than any of us "free" people.
unless he's an informant this guy aint getting out anytime soon...but im sure he's snitching as we type this
Well done RCMP!

The tattoo labeling is a hoot. Yes, I did laugh and wonder about diminished intelligence.

However, when I look at the violent gangs of the world, this style of branding is present and telling. Knowing this style of gang is multiplying in our neck of the woods is frightening.

I am thankful for any help we can get from the lower mainland.
Drug dealing skum are nothing but low life kid killers, who, if they ever grow up and have a conscience, will have to deal with it in later life.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Unless I am mistaken (and I'm basing my opinion on all of the media reports on the matters) ALL of the recent busts of gangsters in Prince George have been made by local mounties. Am I wrong?

'IAM', I mimic your sentiment regarding the great job the RCMP is doing. However, I just think the accolades should be directed more locally, rather than the lower-main-landers who appear to be more interested in public relations than results.

Way to go Prince George RCMP!
Hey Happy:
Where in the world do you think the local RCMP are getting their info from concerning all these gang types from the lower mainland, and don't kid yourself, most of these idiots moved up here for some easy money. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when one of these LMD guys say hello to an Abbotsford gangbanger who he busted last month down south.
And yes, our local guys and gals are doing a bang up job of annoying the hell out of these goofs. The intelligence sharing pays off.
Don't assume all these people are young and don't have anything to care about,many have children themselves.In the article the person is 30 years old,which may be young to alot of posters of this site,but it is old to a 16,17,18 year old,who is being recruited.The article also states this 30 year old is only a striker for the renegades and a leader of the GTS.So,how old are some of the members of the renegades,30,40's,50's.All these people are not young adults who are still trying to find there way through life,some stick around for awhile because they enjoy the power and glory they think this gives them.
Happy, couldn't agree with you more. The Gang Task Force seems to be more of a public relations machine then an enforcement team. From what I can see, the recent busts that have been happening in the city are mostly due to local cops. I think that the LMD Gang Task Force is good for “in your face” enforcement, however it takes a lot more then booting gangsters out of the bar to combat the gang problems we are facing in the city of Prince George. All I know is that I would like to see more of this type of enforcement in my city. Now hopefully the courts do their job.
Ever wonder where these guns are coming from?
Even if they file the ser. nos off, they can be raised forensically in some cases.
Would love to see follow ups on origins, maybe let the gun registry lovers understand.
