West Âé¶¹AV RCMP is investigating a daytime break-in that happened while two people, including a child, were in the home.
The incident happened in the 3200 block of McIver Road during the morning of Aug. 10. The homeowners were out for a walk while their adult daughter and her child were in the basement.
The daughter heard a commotion upstairs but believed it was her parents back from their walk.
RCMP say a male suspect broke in, stole cash and a credit card, and then used that card at three West Âé¶¹AV businesses before it was reported stolen.
Surveillance video from the businesses showed the man making transactions.
The suspect is described as:
- Wearing a dark-coloured camo shirt with a hood over his head
- Sunglasses
- A grey baseball hat
- Dark jeans
- White/orange running shoes
Anyone who sees the individual is asked to call West Âé¶¹AV RCMP at 250-768-2880 and reference file number 2024-45959. Anonymous tips can be made through Central Okanagan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-242-8477.
