By 250 News

23 year old Prince George male charge of possession of stolen property after being arrested on a stolen motorcycle
24 year old Prince George male, facing charges of possession of stolen property over $5,000 and failing to stop for police after he drove a stolen F350 truck into a resident’s yard and ran from police.
38 year old Prince George male facing charges of party to the offence of Possession of stolen property over $5000
17 year old Prince George male facing charges of impaired driving while under the influence of drugs failing to stop for police and dangerous driving.
39 year old transient male facing charges of possession of stolen property over $5,000 after being arrested in a stolen Dodge truck.
Although IMPACT has wrapped up one week of work in Prince George, Police advise, “bait cars are everywhere, and IMPACT will be returning to the City at any given date”
IMPACT was brought into Prince George after it was noted that during the first four months of the year, auto theft crime was up 17% in this city compared to reductions in other parts of the province. The auto crime statistics among communities north of 100 Mile ( with the exception of Ft. St. John) were bucking the downward trend in auto crime stats in most other communities in B.C.
