  • Suspect arrested in ATM theft

Kelowna R-C-M-P have a suspect in custody in connection to an A-T-M theft at a business earlier this month. 

R-C-M-P say a male suspect, who's known to police, is believed to be responsible after he and a female suspect were seen using the same stolen pickup truck used in the "brazen" robbery. 

Police confirmed the truck used was reported stolen from out front of a West Kelowna home in late October.

 The female suspect has been released on conditions.
