RCMP located a replica firearm, but are still searching for the suspect.
The search for a female suspect who appeared to have a gun prompted Prince George RCMP to shut down a section of Massey Drive on Wednesday evening.
“Police officers immediately flooded the area and began to search for the woman,” Prince George RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Jennifer Cooper said in a statement released on Thursday. “Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of the public, those people in Carrie Jane Grey Park and the surrounding public venues were asked to leave the area and traffic along Massey Drive was shut down for a short time. A police dog service team was called in to assist frontline police officers with the search.
RCMP located a replica firearm shortly after the initial report was made, but police are still looking for a suspect.
