Richmond RCMP say they’ve arrested their “white whale” in Surrey.
Mitchell William Coubrough, of Richmond, now faces 28 criminal charges and three Motor Vehicle Act charges.
“The suspect has occupied the number one spot on Richmond RCMP’s most wanted list for well over a year,” notes an RCMP release, “and was second most wanted person on the BAITCar/Integrated Municipal Police Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) Top Ten.”
Police say Coubrough was arrested on April 12 in the 6600-block of 127A St. in Surrey.
Prior to his arrest, police say Coubrough, 30, had eight outstanding warrants for his arrest including six from Richmond, one from White Rock and one from Surrey.
“The sheer number of charges that were approved strongly illustrates just how active this individual was in our community and surrounding areas,” said Corporal Dennis Hwang in a release. Coubrough is in custody until his court appearance on April 27.
