Stolen items recovered, drugs and guns seized in traffic stop

An early Friday morning traffic stop yielded quite the haul for the Prince George RCMP.

Just after 1:00 a.m., police conducted the traffic stop on Queensway near Patricia Boulevard.

While speaking with the driver, mounties observed a gun case resting at the feet of the front passenger.

Police say the two occupants were arrested, and a subsequent search of the vehicle for public and safety located two firearms, as well as some ammunition.

According to police, one of the firearms was recently reported as stolen from a residence in Prince George.

“The vehicle search located drugs and drug trafficking paraphernalia, as well as many large items that appeared to be stolen,” said Cpl. Jennifer Cooper.

“We are asking the Prince George community to check their homes, vehicles, and around their property for any recently missing items that may not yet have been reported as stolen.”
