Dawson Creek RCMP are thanking a member of the public for helping officers arrest a fleeing suspect.
Mounties say that two members of the RCMP Violence Supression Team noticed a suspect in the Dawson Creek Walmart parking lot, who was wanted on three outstanding warrants.
Adam Dahr allegedly ran towards the entrance of the store when he spotted police. A shopper noticed the chase and stuck out his leg, tripping Dahr. Mounties were then able to arrest him
Dahr was wanted on warrants totaling 15 charges. Among the charges; aggravated assault, pointing a firearm at another person, robbery, resisting a police officer and theft of a motor vehicle.
In February of 2024, Dahr was charged in connection with a violent home invasion in Dawson Creek. He was released on bail by a judge in Grande Prairie.
