Arrested for shed squatting

Two homeless people were arrested Friday morning for allegedly squatting in a Kelowna shed.

Just after 8 a.m., police responded to the 2200 block of Aberdeen Street after a man noticed the padlock on his large detached shed had been cut off.

The property owner then noticed a man peering out a window from inside.

“RCMP general duty officers responded to the scene and subsequently arrested both a 33-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman, both of no fixed address in Kelowna,” said Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey.

The pair remain in police custody, but charges have not yet been laid.
