West Kelowna Police Return Recovered Stolen Goods

According to Mounties in West Kelowna, approximately 20 percent of the total property seized by police, as suspected stolen property, has been re-united with its rightful owner.

On December 7th, 2017 RCMP in West Kelowna conducted a large seizure of suspected stolen property from a local residence. Men’s and women’s jewellery along with personal accessories made up the majority of the suspected stolen property seized by police which included, rings, necklaces, bracelets earrings, purses, sunglasses and watches.

“At least a dozen individuals have been reunited with their recovered personal property, over the past two weeks, after they attended the West Kelowna RCMP Detachment,” says Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey. “An additional nearly half a dozen individuals, who attended the detachment hoping to claim their personal property, were unable to recognize or identify anything as their own.”

Police continue to encourage residents of the West Kelowna, Peachland area, who have previously been the victim of a break and enter and suffered a subsequent loss of jewellery items, to contact the lead investigator of their police file in hopes of claiming their personal property.
