Mounties are hoping someone out there can provide information leading to the suspect.

Anyone with any information regarding the identity of the suspect is asked to call the West Kelowna RCMP, Const. Folz at 250-768-2880. Remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, leaving a tip online at www.crimestoppers.net or by texting your tip to CRIMES (274637) ktown
