“Police are in the process of identifying property and have started returning it to owners. It’s definitely satisfying for our Property Crime Unit officers, who did some great work on this investigation.”
The suspected stolen property includes numerous tools and machinery. One item recovered from the property was recently reported stolen from a farm in Ladner.
There were no risks to public safety during the incident, and no one was injured. The incident remains under investigation and Delta Police anticipate forwarding a number of charges to Crown for consideration.
