WILLIAMS LAKE, B.C. — A Williams Lake man has been charged after a violent robbery in the Cariboo city last month, but one suspect remains on the loose.

RCMP say Kyle Travis Sellars, 31, is in custody and facing a list of charges.

On August 22, Mounties were called to Pigeon Road, where a man reported he had been robbed at gunpoint and held by force in his home. The man managed to escape to a neighbour’s home and police were summoned.

Police say the victim was taken to hospital for treatment of serious injuries.

One suspect was arrested while another male suspect fled the area.
