Williams Lake RCMP have issued a public warning urging residents to steer clear of an individual believed to be a threat to the community.
Police believe Lashway Merrit to be a threat to the public due to his criminal connections, and believed involvement in gang-related activities.
Last year, Merrit was the victim of a shooting incident which police believe to be associated with gang violence in the area.
They are asking friends, family, and anyone who may have interacted with him to take measures to increase their own personal safety.
Police also say Merrit is violent, and are asking anyone with information on recent gang dealings or violence to call 9-1-1.
