More thievery in Kamloops
A 22-year-old man who is well-known to police was arrested over the weekend after climbing over a fence and into a secure compound at a North Kamloops business.
Just after 11 p.m. on Saturday (June 18), a witness spotted someone climbing the fence outside General Grants Bottle Depot on Fortune Drive.
Mounties set up a perimeter and entered the compound, where the man was found and arrested.
Police are recommending charges of break and enter with intent to commit an indictable offence.
The man’s name has not been released.
• Thieves also broke into a Kamloops business over the weekend, but left almost empty-handed.
A pair of crooks forced their way into a paper-recycling business in the 1700-block of Kelly Douglas Road and made off with 12 bags of empty bottles and cans.
