PG RCMP continuing investigation into string of break-and-enters

A string of break-and-enters resulting in tens of thousands of dollars being lost is continuing to be investigated by the Prince George RCMP.

Police say the first incident occurred in the early morning of April 25th, at a residence on the 11000 block of Pinko Road, where it was reported that multiple firearms, ammunition and a silver Kawasaki UTV were stolen.

Three others happened on Monday, with the first occurring shortly before 2:00 am at a commercial yard on the 9800-block of Milwaukee Way.

RCMP said several tool kits and a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 extended cab with a white fibreglass cap in the box were stolen.

A sea-can at a jobsite on the 1100 block of Foothills Boulevard was also broken into, with representatives from the company estimating that nearly $80,000 worth of laser mapping equipment, tools and rebar cutting equipment had been taken.

Lastly, after 6:00 am at a property on the 7800-block of Cummings Road, Security personnel reported they witnessed someone on a UTV using a torch to cut through the fence at the location stealing a reel of copper.

Police said the UTV was found shortly after, abandoned on a property several blocks away, with the roll of copper still attached, with the UTV identified as the one taken Friday, and was seized as part of the ongoing investigations.

They ask anyone with information on who might have committed the break-and-enters and where the items are to contact the Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300.
