RCMP nab pair, each faces several charges

The Surrey RCMP say proactive enforcement work by its officers landed a pair of prolific offenders behind bars. On March 5, Mounties spotted a Mercedes SUV with a covered VIN number and two different plates, both stolen. The SUV was confirmed stolen and linked to a break and enter a few weeks earlier in the Guildford area involving a garage door opener. Sean Gullick, a 25-yearold Surrey man, has been charged with numerous offences. Gullick is a known property crime offender and police say his arrest should assist in the reduction of garage break and enters in the Guildford and Cloverdale areas. On March 6, Surrey RCMP’s gang enforcement team attempted to stop a cyclist for a minor violation in the 6700 block of King George Boulevard. Police say the cyclist, apprehended following a brief chase, was carrying a hidden sawed-off rifle and ammunition. Christopher Trotchie, 30, with no fixed address, has been charged with a number of firearms offences and breach of probation.
