Police seize more items near Likely

Police have seized two shotguns, three rifles and ammunition found stashed at Abbott Creek Recreation Site on Quesnel Lake.

Police have seized two shotguns, three rifles and ammunition found stashed at Abbott Creek Recreation Site on Quesnel Lake, said Williams Lake RCMP Staff Sgt. Del Byron Wednesday.

The seizure of the items is the result of an ongoing RCMP investigation in the Likely area after a man and a woman were arrested for possession of a cargo trailer, four snowmobiles and an RV, mostly stolen out of Hinton, Alberta.

The stolen items were found after police investigated a single vehicle rollover on Spanish Lake Road that occurred Monday at 11:20 a.m.

When the male and female were arrested they were in a stolen truck, Byron said, adding a second truck, stolen from 100 Mile House got away.

On Wednesday the 100 Mile House RCMP confirmed the stolen truck is a 2006 grey Ford pickup super cab with the license plate 9836LP.
