Police arrest suspect after stumbling upon several stolen items

The Prince George RCMP wants to reunite the owners of several smaller items with their belongings, after arresting a suspect in a local parking lot who was seen checking vehicle door handles.

Police say the incident occurred just before noon on Tuesday at a parking lot in a shopping complex on the 1600-block of Fifteenth Avenue.

“The suspect was located by the security company on scene after they witnessed her behaviour in the parking lot. A search after her arrest located multiple items in her possession that do not appear to belong to her. We are looking for anyone else who may have left their vehicle unlocked and are now missing some of the smaller, personal items from their cars,” stated Corporal Jennifer Cooper.

Anyone with reason to believe the police may have your belongings, are asked to visit the detachment and speak with an officer.

Residents are asked to describe what they are missing and if it matches what investigators recovered.

RCMP are reminding drivers to lock their vehicle when they leave it – whether it’s in your driveway, on the street or in a parking lot, as vehicle theft can occur in any neighbourhood, at any time of day.

The suspect was released from custody with a future court date. This file remains under investigation.
