CRIME: THEFT OF LOGGING EQUIPMENT
DATE: April 1, 2019
RCMP FILE: Oliver – 2019-1538
A logging camp near Twin Lakes in the South Okanagan suffered an expensive loss sometime in the last week of March when a $70,000 cutting head was removed from the excavator it was attached to. The black and red piece is made by Waratah (model 622B) and has a serial number of 622463. This 7,000 pound distinctive piece of machinery can only be used for logging and would have been taken by someone with knowledge of heavy duty mechanics. An excavator head was also taken from an excavator arm.
