An assault in Charlie Lake from last night led to a residential fire, and kickstarted a search for a stolen truck.
Just after 9:00 last night, Fort St John RCMP received a report of a residence on fire which followed an armed assault from multiple intruders.
When Officers and crews from the Fort St John Fire Service arrived, they found the home fully engulfed in flames.
However, the suspects had already fled the scene after stealing the victim’s 2007 black GMC Sierra pick-up truck.
After launching an investigation, police were able to locate the vehicle that the suspects originally arrived at the residence in, and arrested one individual.
An investigation is on-going and anyone with relevant information is asked to contact Fort St John RCMP at 250 787 8100.
