PRINCE GEORGE — Prince George RCMP is currently investigating a string of break-and -enters that total tens of thousands of dollars with multiple residences and businesses affected.

RCMP say the first break in occurred the morning of April 25 at a home on the 11000 block of Pinko Road. Multiple firearms, ammunition and a silver Kawasaki UTV were stolen.

The other three thefts occurred April 28 – the first shortly before 2 a.m. at a commercial yard on the 9800 block of Milwaukee Way. Several tool kits and a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 extended cab with a white fiberglass cap in the box were stolen.

A sea can at a jobsite on the 1100 block of Foothills Boulevard was also broken into with nearly $80,000 worth of laser mapping equipment, tools and rebar cutting equipment stolen.

The last break-and-enter occurred shortly after 6 a.m. at a property on the 7800 block of Cummings Road. Security personnel witnessed someone on a UTV using a torch to cut through the fence and then steal a reel of copper. A short time later, the UTV was located abandoned on a property several blocks away.

The UTV was identified as the same taken in the break-and-enter on April 25.

Investigators are looking for anyone with information on who might have committed these break and enters and where any of the items are now. If you have any information, call police.
