Behchokǫ̀ RCMP say they are searching for a 30-year-old from the community wanted regarding a range of charges.
The man – Tyson Michel – is “believed to be in Yellowknife,” police said, given Behchokǫ̀ is currently under an evacuation order related to an oncoming wildfire.
Hundreds of Behchokǫ̀ residents have fled to Yellowknife as a result, though some have sought refuge in other Tłı̨chǫ communities or in the Dehcho and South Slave.
“Michel is wanted for criminal harassment, uttering threats, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and failing to comply with release conditions,” RCMP stated.
Police are asking anyone who knows where Michel is to contact the Yellowknife detachment at 867-669-1111 or leave a tip online.
