PRINCE GEORGE – As Prince George RCMP continue to investigate into a Tuesday (Jan. 14) shooting of a local man, officers attended a residence on Parkview Crescent.

While there, officers could see a handgun on the kitchen counter of the residence. As a result, all four occupants of the house were arrested, two 21-year-old males, a 19-year-old male, and a 22-year-old female.

While further searching the residence, officers found another handgun, an SKS rifle, another rifle with a suppressor, ammunition, body armour, a significant amount of cash, and a large quantity of drugs including methamphetamine, cocaine and cannabis.

Police believe that neither the firearms nor the persons arrested are associated in the Tuesday shooting.
