Armed men a false alarm

Kelowna RCMP surrounded Orchard Park Mall Thursday evening, after receiving reports of two armed men entering the building.

Just after 6 p.m., a witness told police they had seen two men in possession of a gun, and overheard them saying the gun was loaded, before going inside.

Police set up a perimeter around the mall, while plain clothes officers entered, located the suspects, and arrested them without incident.

After the arrest, police determined the firearm was an airsoft pistol.

Police determined the two individuals were youths, and will be released to their respective guardians.
