Two break and enters to start the month in Osoyoos

PENTICTON – Osoyoos RCMP are hoping you can help solve two break and enters on March 1.

A garage on 87th Street was entered by thieves who made off with a 1988 black Ford Mustang, a black and yellow coloured Bombardier XP Seadoo and several tools valued at approximately $15,000.

On the same date, Osoyoos RCMP also answered a call to a break enter and theft on Fuji Court.  It was discovered someone entered the residence between February 26 and March 1, taking up residence. Police investigation revealed someone had been cooking food and had likely been inside for some time. Before they left they made off with two televisions and some antiques.

A small red car was observed in the driveway, which was noted to have had a small dent or a piece missing below the right tail light.

I have been looking for news in the South Okanagan - SImilkameen for 20 years, having turned a part time lifelong interest into a full time profession. After five years publishing a local newsletter, several years working as a correspondent / stringer for several local newspapers and seven years as editor of a Similkameen weekly newspaper, I joined iNFOnews.ca in 2014. My goal in the news industry has always been to deliver accurate and interesting articles about local people and places. My interest in the profession is life long - from my earliest memories of grade school, I have enjoyed writing.
As an airborne geophysical surveyor I travelled extensively around the globe, conducting helicopter borne mineral surveys.
I also spent several years at an Okanagan Falls based lumber mill, producing glued-wood laminated products.
As a member of the Kaleden community, I have been involved in the Kaleden Volunteer Fire Department for 22 years, and also serve as a trustee on the Kaleden Irrigation District board.
I am currently married to my wife Judy, of 26 years. We are empty-nesters who enjoy living in Kaleden with our Welsh Terrier, Angus, and cat, Tibbs.
Our two daughters, Meagan and Hayley, reside in Richmond and Victoria, respectively.
