Prince George RCMP responded to a call about a theft earlier this morning in the 15 Avenue and Victoria Street area that eventually resulted in a physical altercation involving a suspect in the town’s detachment cells.
Police were able to track down the suspect not too far away from the site of the theft and arrested the man, who not only had a firearm on his person, but an already existing outstanding arrest warrant placed on him as well.
The man was then taken to Prince George’s detachment cells and a physical altercation got started which resulted in both bear spray and an officer’s pistol getting discharged.
A Police Officer and the suspect got injured in the altercation and both required medical attention.
RCMP will not be releasing anymore more updates on this case.
