  • Kelowna teacher charged with child luring

A Kelowna teacher has been charged with luring a child after police investigated allegations of inappropriate communications with a student.

Kelowna R-C-M-P say Jeffrey Allen Jennens was scheduled to appear in court yesterday.

Police say they began investigating Jennens in May, and the teacher was arrested and placed on a number of conditions based on evidence reviewed by the Kelowna sex crime unit.

The information from the investigation was turned over to prosecutors last week, resulting in the charge against Jennens.
