With winter here the RCMP is warning the public about snowmobile theft.
A bait sled program is in full swing in the North, but Corporal Craig Douglas says sleds are an attractive target;
“There are modified sleds, you have different sizes of them. The value of them is quite high and thieves will take advantage of that. Plus in the past, snowmobiles were not registered which made them harder to track.”
A new registration system is coming into effect next year that police say will make it easier to track stolen sleds.
In the meantime they say it is ultimately up to you to keep your toys locked up and make life hard for thieves.
Something going on in the Prince George area you think people should know about?
