A Prince George RCMP officer was uninjured after suspects shot at a police cruiser during yesterday’s (Oct. 8) flight from police following a second shooting on Bellos Street.

Police say the investigation into yesterday's targeted shooting, which saw three Prince George schools go into a precautionary ‘hold and secure’ as police pursued the suspects, is continuing. 

Evidence found during the investigation has shown that a suspect discharged a firearm striking the windshield of a police cruiser, however, the officer in the vehicle was uninjured.

Charges have now been approved for the three men involved with shooting and flight from police, which ended shortly after the suspect’s vehicle collided with a curb and through a fence, before coming to a stop in the front yard of a residence at the corner of 10 Avenue and McBride Crescent.

Investigators continue to gather evidence and obtain statements from witnesses.
