Police are now looking for the suspects or any information about the theft. The driver was described as a 25- to 30-year-old Caucasian woman with dirty blond or brown hair. A man was also riding in the passenger seat, according to the news release.
“Maybe you saw a couple of people walking on or away from Renfrew Street, or maybe someone caught your eye earlier in the day in the parking lot of the TCC – whatever information you think you might have that could help assist in furthering this investigation is worth calling police about please,” Cpl. Crystal Evelyn of Kamloops RCMP said in the release.
The car was reported stolen around 7:35 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 15, after a backpack with its keys was stolen sometime between 6:30 p.m. and 7:20 p.m.
It struck the Kamloops RCMP vehicle around 8:40 p.m., but police didn't say what time it was found on Renfrew Street.
