Prince George RCMP arrested a prolific offender on Sunday night, March 2, 2025, following a report of a fight in the city.
The investigation began just after 4 p.m. when officers responded to a complaint of two men fighting near Freeman Street and Eighth Avenue. Witnesses told police they had seen a man entering backyards in the area and confronted him, leading to a verbal altercation.
“When police arrived, the suspect fled on foot,” said Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, media relations officer for the Prince George RCMP. “He was located again in the 600 block of Douglas Street and taken into custody after initially refusing to comply with officers' instructions.”
The suspect, known to police, was found in possession of approximately 17 grams of suspected illicit drugs and was found to be violating court-ordered conditions. He remains in custody and will appear in court at a later date.
The investigation is ongoing.
