Police are on the lookout for a suspect after a man was knocked out during a home invasion-style robbery of a Pineview home early Thursday evening.
The suspect is described as a First Nations man, 183 cm (6'0") tall and weighing 113 kgs (250 lbs) with black messy hair with some facial hair. He was wearing black sunglasses, a dark hoody, cargo pants and a large backpack.
RCMP were called to the scene at 5:30 p.m. but due to the victim's injury the call appears to have been made some time after the incident, police said.
"The victim was assessed by paramedics and declined transportation to hospital," RCMP said. "Although the motive for this incident is not yet known, it is possible that the suspect broke into the residence and was startled by the victim."
Anyone with information on who the suspect may be is asked to call the Prince George RCMP at (250)561-3300 or anonymously contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.pgcrimestoppers.bc.ca (English only).
You do not have to reveal your identity to Crime Stoppers. If you provide information that leads to an arrest, you could be eligible for a cash reward.
