CHARGES have been approved against a 59-year-old man in relation to an indecent act that occurred on Lougheed Highway in North Burnaby earlier this year.
On May 12, Burnaby RCMP received a report that a driver was engaged in an indecent act inside a vehicle on Lougheed Highway near Gaglardi Way.
Burnaby RCMP’s High Risk Offender Unit took conduct of the investigation with assistance from other plainclothes units within the detachment.
On August 18, charges were approved against Patrick Joseph Paul Pelletier of Port Moody. Pelletier faces two charges of indecent act in relation to this incident.
“This type of behaviour is not acceptable in our community,” said Cpl. Andrew Coupe with Burnaby RCMP’s High Risk Offender Unit. “Thanks to the assistance of several partner agencies, our investigators were able to identify a suspect and gather additional evidence to support criminal charges.”
“We would also like to thank the witness who reported this incident,” Coupe added.
