He fled from police after threatening a neighbour with a pipe wrench
Judge Martin Nadon ordered a psychological report for a man who admitted on Wednesday, Dec. 11 to spitting in an RCMP officer’s face and smearing feces in a Prince George detachment jail cell.
Prince George Provincial Court heard that police were called at 6:12 p.m. on June 15 after a man complained that his neighbour had threatened him with a large pipe wrench. Court heard he complied with their orders to remove the keys from the ignition. An officer noticed a large pipe wrench on the passenger seat and pulled it away from Book, who exited the vehicle and was arrested without incident. Officers found fireworks in his glove compartment and a lighter and matches elsewhere in the vehicle, all significant because Book had been prohibited in Ontario from possessing explosives, accelerants and lighters.
