There was also a large amount of grow operation paraphernalia seized.

Nobody was home at the time, so no arrests were made, however the investigation is still ongoing, with attempts being made to identify the suspects.

B.C. Hydro was in attendance to disconnect an elaborate by-pass which was allowing the growers to steal power.

RCMP would like to thank the public for their vigilance. The recent influx of information indicates people are no longer prepared to tolerate this behaviour in the community.

If anyone suspects or is aware of criminal activity, call the Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222- TIPS or visit www.pgcrimestoppers.bc.ca.
