Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 31 May, 2023 09:46 AM

Police in Surrey say they're on the lookout for two men facing charges for firearms offences who removed their electronic ankle bracelets and didn't return to their court-mandated residence last week.

Surrey R-C-M-P say they want the public's help locating 25-year-old Terry MacDonald and 26-year-old Joseph Gregory, who are both wanted for allegedly breaching their bail conditions.

Mounties say the pair were released on bail May 25th on gun charges, and police received a report the next day about the men removing their monitoring bracelets and leaving the location of their house arrest.

Investigators say McDonald is five-foot-six, weighing 150 pounds, while Gregory is six-foot-two and 220 pounds, and both men are considered armed and dangerous.
