Three men have been arrested following a reported break-in and a large police presence to track them down Tuesday morning on Sumas Prairie in Abbotsford.
Sgt. Paul Walker, media officer with the Abbotsford Police Department (APD), said the incident began just before 7:30 a.m. with the report of a break-in of a barn in the 40500 block of No. 4 Road.
He said police contained the area around Interprovincial Highway and No. 3 Road, and a vehicle was seen driving away from the scene. Officers used a spike belt, which damaged the car's tires.
Walker said two men left the vehicle and ran away.
They were apprehended just before 9 a.m. in a field by patrol officers, with the assistance of a police dog. A third man was also arrested in the area.
They remain in custody at this time, with possible charges pending.
