PENTICTON - The thieves knew what they were looking for during a business break-in yesterday in Vernon.

Police responded to a commercial alarm in the 2900 block of 31st Avenue in Vernon around 10:45 p.m. yesterday, Dec. 16, according to an RCMP media release.

“Once inside the business, the suspects targeted a glass display case containing the watches,” Vernon RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Tania Finn said in the release.
