RCMP are still asking for information related to a reported break and enter on May 13 at Yekooche.

Through the night, a person allegedly broke into a home on the reserve through a window and took cigarettes and alcohol from a home.

RCMP have no suspects at this time, but anyone with information should contact Fort St. James RCMP at 996-8269 or to remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

On May 13, Mt. Milligan security contacted RCMP to report a truck stolen from the mine site.

The vehicle had no plates and was a 2013 White Ford F150.

A mine employee reportedly gave the keys to a person who has not yet been identified.

The truck is still missing and anyone with information or who may have seen the vehicle should call the RCMP or Crimestoppers.

On May 15 at 7:30 p.m., while patrolling downtown, RCMP were flagged down in their vehicle.

One female presented herself with blood on her face and said she had been hit by another woman.

Two females had reportedly been in an argument over a man and RCMP took statements from the victim and the suspect. The victim was taken to hospital and the suspect was arrested and later released on conditions.

On May 16 just before 1 a.m. in the morning, RCMP were called to Rotary Kids Park.

The report came in saying there were five or six youth in the park banging on things and trying to light something on fire.

RCMP did not find youth in the park when they arrived, but they did find evidence someone was trying to start a fire in a garbage can and the still-smouldering trash was taken to a safe area and extinguished properly.

On May 17 at 10:10 a.m., a suspicious vehicle was seen leaving the Fort Trailer Park. RCMP followed the vehicle, which tried to evade police on Gotjen Road  and when it was followed, once again turned around and changed direction.

RCMP eventually pulled the vehicle over, and found the driver had no licence and he also blew a fail on the roadside blood alcohol screening device.

The driver also had outstanding warrants from Alberta.

The driver was then issued a 90-day immediate roadside prohibition from driving and was transported to the detachment where he was held until the next day.

On May 17 on Tache Reserve, a constable driving on Alexis Drive was flagged down.

One victim and one witness reported an assault and pointed out the suspect.

The victim said she was punched in the face and head several times.

The witness, however, declined to provide a statement.

The suspect was then brought back to the detachment and released on a promise to appear in court on August 30.

RCMP are recommending charges of assault related to the incident.

Also on May 17 at just before 10 p.m., RCMP received a complaint of an assault in the Fort Trailer Park. One reportedly intoxicated victim said he was punched and wanted the suspect out of his house. At around 10 p.m., RCMP located the suspect, but once the suspect was out of the home, the victim was not interested in pursuing charges in the incident.

On May 18 at 1:40 a.m., a woman on the Nak’azdli Reserve called to report someone banging on her door.

Upon arrival, RCMP found one male at the back door of the home, reportedly intoxicated and on conditions not to consume alcohol.

The male was taken into custody, and then admitted he had given the wrong name to police.

Upon investigation of his correct name, RCMP discovered the person was wanted in Prince George and was on conditions. The man was held in custody until he could appear in court on May 21.

Petdro Felix is now facing charges in relation to the incident.

On May 18 at 12:30 p.m., RCMP responded to a report of threats against a person.

One man was upset because his neighbour was playing his music too loudly and reportedly threatened to assault the man.

No charges were laid in the incident.

On May 19, a female called to report her and her husband were having a verbal argument and she feared he might hit her.

Alcohol was reportedly involved in the incident, and RCMP took statements from the individuals involved.

Through their investigation, police learned the female had picked up  knife while on the phone to police and threatened to stab the man and a 16-year-old son was in the residence at the time of the incident.

Both adults were taken into custody and held until sober.

The Ministry of Children and Families was contacted in relation to the youth in the home.

On May 19 at 5:45 a.m., a female reported her boyfriend threw her to the ground after an argument.

She then locked her boyfriend out of the home. There was a one-month-old child in the home at the time.

The victim reported she had been struck in the face and thrown to the ground in the argument, which was over the child. Neither party would provide statements but the suspect will appear in court on Sept. 10.

The Ministry of Children and Families was again contacted in relation to the incident.

On May 20 at 4:52 a.m., RCMP received a report of a single vehicle accident on One Mile Hill. A driver from Mt. Milligan had been flagged down by a few people on the side of the road where a 2006 grey Ford 500 had gone off the road, rolled over once and hit the ditch.

The Mt. Milligan employee could not help with the accident because of the company’s rules regarding vehicle use and when RCMP arrived on scene, no one was on site at the accident.

Another passerby then stopped and reported they had driven two occupants of the vehicle to the hospital.

The victims received treatment in the hospital for minor injuries but no one would provide a statement to police in relation to the accident.

On May 23 at 8:05 p.m., RCMP received a report of a man on the Tache Reserve trying to fight another man.

The incident reportedly began when someone came into the suspect’s mother’s home and took her medication.

The son of the theft victim then assaulted one man and threatened to attack the victim’s brother if the pills were not returned.

On May 22 at 12:07 p.m., a Wildfire Management employee reported a chainsaw stolen from his pickup while working near the Tache Reserve.

The saw was then reported returned to the employee at 13:11 p.m., after a good samaritan saw someone trying to sell the chainsaw and then took it and returned it to the owner.
