PEACHLAND - Vehicle tampering appears to be an ongoing problem in the Peachland area.
Odina Skovgaard posted on the Peachland Neighbours Facebook group on June 23 to claim that her car's front lug nuts had been loosened the night before. She noted she had her three-year-old child in the car with her when she noticed a strange noise. Her husband checked the car and saw the loosened lug nuts before they reached a high speed.
