RCMP remain on the look out for a man who allegedly pointed a firearm inside a needle-ridden drug house last week.

Michael Junior Aslin, 30, is described as aboriginal, 5'9" (175 cm) tall and weighing 120 lbs (55 kg) with brown hair and brown eyes.

On Nov. 19, RCMP responded to a call of a woman being threatened with a firearm at 1837 Spruce St.

Aslin was gone by the time they were on the scene, but another man was arrested.

Douglas Wayne Joseph, 30, faces seven mostly-firearms-related charges including one count each of careless storage of a firearm and possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose. As of Friday, Joseph remained in custody.

Crown counsel, meanwhile, has also approved nine charges against Aslin, including one count of pointing a firearm and two counts of assault with a weapon.

Aslin, who has an extensive criminal record, also continues to face a charge of assault from an alleged Sept. 20, 2014 incident. On that matter, Aslin was scheduled to make a first appearance in court on Wednesday but in failed to show up.

Another 14 people were arrested at the Spruce Street home and later released on documents to appear in court at a later date.

RCMP have described the home as a flop house for drug users and have said thousands of used needles were found strewn about the residence, one half of a duplex.

Anyone who may have information on where Aslin may be is asked to call Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300 or anonymously contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Tips can be made online at www.pgcrimestoppers.bc.ca, or by texting CRIMES using keyword "pgtips."
