DATE: March 19, 2014
RCMP FILE: 2014-13433
At approximately 1:00 AM on March 19th three men slipped into the Playa Del Sol Complex on Cook Road by following a tenant into the building. Soon after they entered, the sprinkler system went off on the 6th floor, soaking hallways on several floors and causing extensive damage to about ten suites (approximately $400,000 worth). About 15 minutes after they entered video surveillance caught them running out of the building through a door close to where the sprinkler was set off. The video images are poor, however RCMP hope someone will recognize these three men as possible suspects. One of the men has a Mohawk style haircut.
