Two women were taken into custody early this morning after Vernon RCMP raided a property on 43 Avenue.
Police have released few details, but a Vernon North Okanagan RCMP media release states that a search warrant was executed at a residential building in the 2900-block of 43 Avenue at roughly 6:30 a.m. today, Dec. 15.
"The police operation has since ended without incident," Vernon RCMP spokesperson Const. Chris Terleski said in the media release. "Two women were taken into custody during the execution of the warrant and were released shortly after without charges. The investigation remains ongoing at this time."
