Powell River RCMP responded to a disturbance in a guest room at a local hotel. The disturbance had been going on for some time and hotel staff requested that the guests be removed.
While police were speaking to the guests and telling them to leave, the guests became assaultive and bit and struck the officers. Both suspects were arrested, removed from the hotel and transported to the RCMP detachment. The suspects were released to appear in provincial court.
Anyone with information about any crime is asked to contact Powell River RCMP at 604.485.6255, or to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1.800.222.8477 or bccrimestoppers.com.
