A report of a single stolen vehicle resulted in three arrests for the Prince George RCMP yesterday.
RCMP received a report of a stolen Honda Odyssey minivan around 8:30 and saw the stolen vehicle on Queensway minutes later.
The vehicle was stopped and officers arrested the driver and two passengers.
The driver of the van, 29 year old Holly Ann Sopel, assaulted the officer who tried to arrest her. She is also suspected in a shoplifting incident that took place last month. It is believed she stole $75 worth of hair dye and razors from a convenience store.
Also arrested were a 24 year old male who is on the RCMP’s Prolific Offenders list and a 42 year old male parolee whose parole has now been revoked.
A total of 4 charges have been approved by crown counsel against the trio:Â theft of a motor vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime, assault of a peace officer and obstructing a peace officer.
