Many had been out in bush north ol here for days at a time; catching a hi!'? to eal now and then at roadside eateries and sleeping for only minutes at a time, if at all. Trosky, whose only companions during his flight through the forest were mosquitoes, bl?ck flies and other wildlife, had a rougher time than RCMP officers, but he's still not ready to call the matter off. 1 [e vows that he will not be kept in jail.

A desperate fear that he was going to he shot kept Trosky on the run from, police. "Don't kill me. Please don't shoot me," he cried repeatedly when he was overpowered in the bush only a couple of hundred yards from homes in the VI-A area but fought the four police who had him pinned to the ground until they were finally able to truss him up with the dog lead. Every time one of the four relaxed a grip to try and tie him he started fighting again. A fifth officer arrived only a couple of minutes after he was seized and it required the efforts of all five to subdue him. Even then it was necessary to remove his boots so nobody would be injured by his kicking. [n on the capture was Const.

Mason was able to wrest a rifle away from him but he grabbed another, which he discarded a couple of days later, and jumped out a window and again disappeared into the bush. When Trosky found Mason was among his raptors he addressed his appeals to him, crying "You're my friend, Mason, don't let them shoot me." He was carried out of the bush about 50 feet to where the police patrol was waiting. Police had another battle on their hands when they tried to remove him from the van at the police station. It took five men to carry him into a cell. Trosky seemed to be very emotionally disturbed with an unreasonable fear that he was going to be shot, and a doctor was called to give him a sedative after he was placed in a cell.
