B & E suspect ID needed

Darpan News Desk IANS, 19 Aug, 2024 04:31 PM
  • B & E suspect ID needed

Mounties in West Kelowna are asking the public for help in identifying the suspect in a break-and-enter at a home earlier this month.

R-C-M-P say it happened when the homeowners were out for a walk, and while their adult daughter and her child were in the basement.

Police say the male suspect broke in and stole cash and a credit card before leaving the home, then used the card at three businesses before it was reported stolen.

They say surveillance video shows the man wearing a dark-coloured camoflage shirt with a hood, sunglasses, a dark grey baseball hat, dark jeans and white and orange running shoes.
