Mounties based in Port Alberni, B.C., arrested a man accused of stealing multiple vehicles, breaking into several properties, and stealing a gun earlier this week.
Port Alberni RCMP say they received reports of a suspicious man driving an ambulance west of Port Alberni on Friday.
Mounties say they set out to find the vehicle, and through "further information" determined that the driver was likely the man who West Shore RCMP were looking for following a series of break-ins and thefts in View Royal and Sooke, B.C., including the theft of a firearm. Before backup arrived, however, local Mounties were able to arrest the man without incident, according to RCMP.
