R-C-M-P in Prince George say the Canada Day long weekend was especially busy for them.
A statement from the detachment says officers were called to everything from robberies and attempted robberies to the torching of a vehicle -- possibly by a suspect already wanted on two other warrants.
In all, Mounties say they answered 374 calls around Prince George between July 1st and July 3rd.
That's up from the 350 calls they received in the same period last year.
81.1% (3,507,707) of all eligible adults in B.C. have received their first dose and 59.0% (2,552,325) have received their second dose.
Two suspects fled the scene and have not been located. VPD investigators believe the incident was targeted.

Once the fire was extinguished, a body was located inside the burned red Ford F-150 pickup. The area surrounding the scene will be cordoned off for a significant amount of time.
At approximately 1:14 a.m. on July 19, 2021, Surrey RCMP Frontline responded to a report of an injured man under the Patullo Bridge. Frontline officers located the man suffering from apparent gunshot wounds.
