Responding to a report of a suspicious occurrence led police to two stolen vehicles and firearms earlier this week.

On June 10, 2024, around 7:30 a.m., Kamloops RCMP frontline officers received a report of a suspicious person going through a newer Ford pickup truck on the 100-block of Cedar Street. Police checks confirmed the truck, along with a Ford SUV located in the back alley behind the residence, were both reported stolen.

With assistance from the Police Dog Service, frontline officers located and seized two firearms and recovered two stolen vehicles as part of the investigation, said Corporal Crystal Evelyn, Kamloops RCMP spokesperson. While officers were on scene, several criminals known by police to be connected to the drug trade and violent crimes were identified and arrested or detained.

Those arrested were released without process as part of the ongoing investigation.

We encourage anyone with information related to suspicious occurrences or suspected criminal activity to continue to reach out to police, said Cpl. Evelyn.

Anyone who witnessed or has video related to this investigation is asked to please contact the Kamloops RCMP Detachment at 250-828-3000 and reference file 2024-17805.
