Prince George RCMP sprung into action quickly when dealing with a break and enter on Remembrance Day. 

According to police, the call came in from a retail electronics store on Southridge Avenue at 7:30 a.m. Officers attended the scene and were informed that a significant amount of electronics had been stolen.  

Evidence at the scene led officers to locate a suspect riding a bike on Highway 16 near Vance Road. The suspect was arrested without incident and the items were returned to the store. 

Carl Frederick Jays, a 39-year-old man from Prince George, was charged by the BC Prosecution Service with break and enter to commit theft, possession of break-in instruments, and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose. He was remanded in custody and will appear in court at some point today. 

Anyone with information on crime in the city is asked to contact Prince George RCMP at (250)561-3300.
