In a matter of hours, LaRiviere was in custody in Grande Prairie, Alberta.

The Prince George RCMP would like to thank the public for their assistance in this matter.

LaRiviere pleaded guilty to manslaughter in connection with the beating death of Jason Hardy in Vernon’s Polson Park in 2015.

He was sentenced to five years in prison but was released after serving two years due to time already served.

The Prince George RCMP are requesting the public’s help in locating a man wanted on a Canada Wide

On Saturday February 2nd, 2019, a Canada Wide Warrant for Being Unlawfully at Large was issued for 31 year old Tal Kalum LaRIVIERE.

The arrest warrant was issued after LaRIVIERE failed to meet the conditions of his release by missing curfew at his designated residence in Prince George, BC.

All efforts to locate LaRIVIERE have been negative so far. Police are now asking for the public’s help in locating him. He is described as:
• Metis male
• 188 cm (6’2”)
• 88 kg (194 lbs)
• Brown hair
• Brown eyes

LaRIVIERE has connections in Vernon, and Grimshaw, Alberta and may be travelling in Northern Alberta or Northern BC.

He is believed to be driving a blue 1994 GMC 1500 pick-up bearing BC license plate MY9880. A photo of a similar vehicle is below. The image is NOT of the actual pick-up.

If LaRIVIERE or his vehicle are located, immediately contact the RCMP or the police of jurisdiction in your area or call 9-1-1.

Do not confront LaRIVIERE. LaRIVIERE should be considered VIOLENT
