23 arrests in Pine Centre Mall shoplifting blitz

PRINCE GEORGE — Prince George RCMP’s latest “Boost and Bust” project led to 23 arrests.

Police say it took place the end of March at Pine Centre Mall with over $7,000 in product recovered.

“These projects focus on prolific shoplifters who are continuously targeting our local retail establishments. Our police officers work with Loss Prevention Officers from the businesses to pinpoint those suspects who are seen by the staff on a regular basis, collectively causing thousands of dollars in loss,” states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer for the Prince George RCMP.
