KELOWNA - At least three vehicles at a downtown Kelowna parkade were broken into Monday night, prompting RCMP to release a description of the man they believe may be responsible.
Just after 9:30 p.m. on April 4 a witness told police they saw a Caucasian man with short, spikey hair breaking into a truck in the Library Plaza parkade on Eillis Street and Doyle Avenue, Const. Jesse O’Donaghey says.
Officers set up containment of the area and a police dog was brought in to search for the suspect, who was reportedly wearing a brown coat.
“At least three vehicles were reported to police as entered or broken into having loose change stolen from inside,” O’Donaghey says in a media release.
The release does not say if the dog was able to track a suspect or if an arrest was made but it does request help from the public.
