CRIME: MISCHIEF WITH GRAFFITI
DATE: February 11, 2016
RCMP FILE: 2016-6975
An employee of a furniture store on the 1800 block of Springfield Road called in a complaint of mischief to the Kelowna RCMP on February 11th. Apparently mischief in the back alley behind the store is frequent, but this time suspects threw a rock into one of the business’s windows ($350 plus to replace) and tagged a wall in the alley as well as the company’s delivery truck. The City of Kelowna, in partnership with Central Okanagan Crime Stoppers, will pay a $500 reward for any tips leading to the arrest or charges to graffiti suspects. Graffiti is a crime that costs the citizens of Kelowna hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to remove.

CRIME: BREAK AND ENTER TO RESIDENCE
DATE: February 13, 2016
RCMP FILE: 2016-7393
Homeowners from the 1500 block of Mountain Avenue arrived home on February 13th after being away for a few days to discover their front door forced open and some missing possessions. Neighbourhood enquiries indicate the theft most likely occurred on the morning of February 11th or 12th as a neighbor noticed a white truck with a yellow or orange design on the side and a tall male with dark hair and dark clothes pull into driveway and go into the house. He stole a 52”Sony KDL52EX700 TV with serial number BDPS370 and several pieces of jewelry from the master bedroom.
