Three people were arrested and police are searching for a fourth after a firearms incident in Rogersville, N.B., that involved the theft of an all-terrain vehicle (ATV).

The Richibucto RCMP Detachment received a report on Sunday around 4:30 p.m. that an ATV that had previously been stolen had been found on a property in Rogersville.

Police received a second report a short time later from the property owners stating people armed with weapons were causing “significant damage” to vehicles on the property and the home.

“When police arrived at the scene, they located and arrested three individuals in connection with the incident. A fourth individual, who was believed to be armed with a firearm, had fled the scene prior to police arrival,” reads a news release from New Brunswick RCMP.

Police say a vehicle was also seized for further investigation.

RCMP Police Dog Services searched for the fourth person who has yet to be located.

“Police are continuing to search, and at this point, do not believe there to be a risk to the general public,” reads the release.

The RCMP says the incident did not meet the criteria for an Alert Ready message.

Police are asking anyone with information that could help locate the individual or further the investigation to contact the Richibucto RCMP at 506-523-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
