$5k reward offered after jet boat stolen in Fort St. John

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — A jet boat was reported stolen from a local’s driveway in Fort St. John.

In a September 18th Facebook post, Jessie James said her 2007 Outlaw jet boat was taken overnight and asked the public for help locating it.

The boat is described as having a black upper section with a burgundy travel top.

The Fort St. John RCMP told Energeticcity.ca officers received a report of a stolen 19-foot aluminum Muskwa jet boat and EZ Loader boat trailer bearing the BC licence plate UJJ56B at around 7:08 a.m. on September 18th from 85A Avenue.

The RCMP said frontline officers canvassed the neighbourhood, but no leads were developed.

James has asked residents in the Duncan Cran area to review any home security footage from the early hours of September 18th.

Anyone with information about the theft, or who spots the stolen boat, can contact the Fort St. John RCMP at (250) 787-8140.

James has also offered a $5,000 reward for whoever locates the boat.

Energeticcity.ca reached out to James for more information but did not receive an immediate response.
