An incident that ended with a crashed truck in Glenrosa, and the arrest of two people, started hours earlier in Penticton on Mar. 24.

Two Alberta residents were charged with pointing a firearm, uttering threats, break-and-enter, and vehicle theft connected to an incident in rural Penticton.

Police were seen running through yards with guns drawn in the Carmi area.

鈥淚t was a very scary event,鈥 resident Ellen Girouard. 鈥淚 must say that the RCMP response was incredible. My poor neighbour is still shaken up having them (the suspects) enter her house.鈥

The suspects allegedly stole the keys to a truck from another house and made their way to West 琉璃神社.

RCMP said they used covert tactics to follow suspects until they were able to safely stop the vehicle in Glenrosa.
