29-year-old Colin Michaud Durrand is considered a priority offender for police, and has a history of violence.

Arrest warrants for Durrand were issued on Monday (October 19).

These warrants were for previously approved Criminal Code charges of:

  • Possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000
  • Obstructing a peace officer
  • Failure to comply with probation

These charges stem from three separate incidents that occurred since July 2019.

Durrand is described as:

  • Caucasian man
  • 6’2, 168 lbs
  • Black hair and brown eyes

Durrand was recently known to be residing in Quesnel but may frequent Prince George and Hixon.

Similar requests for assistance were made by police in late July and mid-September of this year following warrants being issued on these same three investigations and others.

 In both instances, Durrand was arrested by police a short time later.

The most recent arrest happened September 28, when officers converged on a residence on Boyd Street, in Prince George.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police, however, mounties warn Durrand is not to be confronted.
