On Thursday, April 20, 2023, shortly after 1 p.m., Prince George RCMP responded to a report of a disturbance on the 7900-block of Block Drive. When police arrived at the location they were informed there was an altercation in a residence there and that a man was inside with a firearm.
“Given the nature of the details learned by police officers, the Emergency Response Team and a team of crisis negotiators were called to assist with the unfolding event. After some time, the suspect came out of the residence and was arrested without further incident by police,” states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer for the Prince George RCMP.
There were no injuries reported during the investigation. The suspect will remain in police custody until he can attend court.
The investigation is ongoing.
