PRINCE GEORGE – RCMP arrested a 32-year-old Prince George man who they characterize as a prolific car thief.
The arrest was made following an aggressive search near the intersection of 5th avenue and Ahbau street which began shortly before 7:00am Friday morning. Witness say the search closed Ahbau Street for a short time and included the use of several squad cars, the police dog team and even a police helicopter.
A police dog team eventually found the suspect hiding under some stairs at the rear of a home. He was arrested for Possession of Stolen Property.
The search began when the man was spotted by police in a stolen vehicle. In an effort to elude police, he drove his vehicle into a curb and lost a tire. So he fled on foot and initially escaped police.
