Prince George RCMP recovered more than $50,000 of stolen goods over the weekend, thanks to a tip from an alert resident.
Officers headed to the area around Highway 16 and Sykes Road in the city's southwest corner on Friday after receiving a call about a stolen truck.
The stolen vehicle was located at a residential area off Highway 16 and officers arrested a 57-year-old Prince George man. A further search of the property uncovered hundreds of other missing items, including tools, vehicle parts, vehicle tires and rims, pet supplies, lawn mowers and a generator.
Five flat deck tow truck loads, as well as a cargo van full of property, was seized as a result of the investigation. Officers are now attempting to locate the rightful owners of all of the stolen property.
