It was a wild early morning crime spree in British Columbia. A car stolen from Chase in B.C. north of Sushwap shortly before 1 a.m. Tuesday morning was then linked to a robbery with a firearm and attempted robberies with a firearm at two commercial locations. Kamloops RCMP looped in the Merritt detachment and their officers tracked the vehicle’s location but it fled again into the Upper Fraser Valley where the stolen Dodge Charger then continued to Hope which is when more calls flooded into RCMP including reports of someone with a weapon smashing vehicle windows, attempted break-ins, and two carjacking attempts — one involving a police officer in an unmarked vehicle. The police officer was in a minor collision as a result, and the suspect fled. A nearby hospital was placed in lockdown during the increased police presence as a safety precaution. Within minutes of each other, two suspects were taken into custody. BC RCMP say the first suspect was located in a tree, the other inside a sleeping resident’s room in a care home that had been broken into. RCMP credit quick action and coordination of police resources for the arrests. Police Dog Service, Emergency Response Teams, and frontline officers took part in the incident.
