Vernon break and enter believed to be targeted

An early morning break-in left some Vernon residents injured, though police say they don't believe the public is at risk.

Vernon Mounties were called Saturday, March 6, at 2:07 a.m. to a residence in the 700 Block of 39th Ave for a report of a break in.

"Police immediately attended the scene and found people at the home in need of medical attention and taken to hospital for treatment," Cpl. Madonna Saunderson said in a press release. 

"It is believed that this was a targeted incident and police do not believe that there is any further risk to the general public."

If anyone was in the area of Blackrock Road and the 700 Block of 39th Ave, and seen anything suspicious, call Const. Richard MacQueen, Vernon Serious Crime unit at 250-307-1111
