KELOWNA - Kelowna RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a woman allegedly caught stealing loose change from the inside of a vehicle.

In a media release issued by police, RCMP responded to a call regarding an overnight attemptrf theft from a parked vehicle at a residence on the 100 block of Toovey Road just before 7 a.m. on Sept. 1.

“According to video surveillance installed nearby, the incident occurred just before 5 a.m.,” RCMP Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey says. “The surveillance cameras captured the unknown female as she crept into the carport structure, that the Ford Explorer pickup truck was parked inside of, and opened the seemingly unlocked driver’s side door.”

Police say the female suspect went through the vehicle’s interior before she allegedly stole an undisclosed amount of loose change from the vehicle.

The female suspect is described as Caucasian with a slender build, light brown or strawberry blonde hair while wearing a black jacket, blue jeans and a set of knee pads with bright pink shoes.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300. RCMP also would like to encourage residents to report any suspicious persons or activities around vehicles to police immediately.
