The Prince George RCMP say they’ve put a prolific offender behind bars, following a break and enter.

On Wednesday Oct 26th at about 2:45pm, police were called to a home on Foster Road in the Charella Gardens neighbourhood. Officers arrived and arrested a male suspect on Ospika Boulevard without incident.

He was found in possession of a pair of shoes that were stolen from the residence.

George was held in custody overnight and will make his first appearance in court this afternoon.
