RCMP still searching for one suspect in guitar theft

Prince George RCMP is searching for a third suspect after arresting two in a weekend break and enter.

On Saturday, March 10th, police responded to an apartment storage locker incident on 15th Avenue. Officials found thieves stole $2,000 worth of property, including three guitars.

Two adults, one man and one woman, attempted to pawn two of the guitars at a local pawn shop. The owner refused and later learned the guitars were stolen.

Shortly after 6:00pm the same day, General Duty officers conducted a traffic stop near the corner of Nation Crescent and 15th Ave. The two suspects were arrested there without incident.
