Vanderhoof RCMP arrest break and enter suspect with BB gun

The Vanderhoof RCMP arrested one suspect after a reported break and enter.

According to police, the incident took place on Sunday, at a residence on 4th Street, where it was also reported that the suspect had a firearm.

Police say the person was quickly located after obtaining a description, and conducted a high-risk arrest, with the man taken into custody without incident.

During the search, police found and seized an imitation firearm, later determined to be a BB gun.

The suspect was later released by the court for a future court date and is on numerous conditions, one of which is not to be in Vanderhoof.

RCMP don’t believe there’s a risk to the public, and the investigation is ongoing.
