“We want the community to know who these people are, and to remind the public if they see them not to approach, but to call police right away.” said Insp. Tim Shields, senior spokesperson for the RCMP in British Columbia. “We asked detachments and specialized investigative units across the province for the names of their most wanted suspects.  These ten are the names we got back.  They are wanted for violent and serious offences, and the sooner we can get them off our streets, the better.  We also want to send these ten wanted people a message: The public are now watching for you as well, and you have nowhere to run and hide.”
         
Anyone with information about these people or their current whereabouts is asked to call their local police or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
