Police are on the lookout for two people suspected of committing a robbery at gunpoint on Saturday afternoon.
The incident occurred in the backyard of a 2200-block Redwood Street home sometime before 3:30 p.m.
“Investigators believe two suspects followed the victim from a downtown business to the residence, where one of them produced a handgun and demanded property from him,” RCMP said. “The victim cooperated and was not harmed during the incident. The two suspects then fled eastbound from the residence. All attempts to locate them were negative.”
The gun wielder is described as a non-white male, 5’10” tall, with short hair, in his early 20s, with a slim build and round face, and wearing a red T-shirt, black jeans, and white runners.
The second suspect was described as Caucasian and wearing a Canucks hat, grey hooded sweatshirt and baggy pants.
Anyone who has seen someone matching either description is asked to call Prince George RCMP at (250)561-3300 or anonymously contact Crime Stoppers at 1(800)222-8477.
