On March 18, 2024, at 4:40pm, officers from BC Highway Patrol Integrated Road Safety Unit – Prince George officers attempted to stop a speeding Dodge Ram, with unknown Alberta licence plate, on Hwy 16 near the Cluculz Lake area. The Dodge Ram failed to stop for police and fled at a high rate of speed.

Police soon received several reports that a black Dodge Ram with a rental Alberta licence plate of ‘A43141’ was driving erratically around Prince George. One witness reported that some occupants of the Dodge Ram ran into some bushes at the end of Domano Boulevard south of Malaspina Drive, but returned to the pickup and fled eastbound on Highway 16 towards Highway 97.

The Police Dog Service attended Domano Boulevard and located two firearms including one loaded handgun and one unloaded handgun. The suspects and suspect vehicle are still outstanding. If you have information about the occupants or incident, please contact the BC Highway Patrol - Prince George at (250) 649-4004 and refer to file 2024-166.
