Police say two bodies found at Kelowna business

Mar 30, 2024 | 3:10 PM

RCMP say two people were found dead at a business in the north end of Kelowna earlier this week.

At least one of the deaths is being treated as a homicide.

On Wednesday, March 27, at around 2:30 p.m., RCMP were called to the 100 block of Adams Road after receiving a report of shots fired in which a subsequent fire ensued.

When officers entered the business, Adventure Trucks, two deceased were located.

“This is an isolated incident and no public are at risk,” Sgt. Laura Pollock said in a news release Saturday. “The Kelowna Serious Crimes Unit is conducting the investigation and will be working in partnership with the BC Coroners Service to determine the causes of death.”

Anyone with information regarding the investigation can call the Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300 and quote file number # 2024-15930 or remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or by leaving a tip online at www.crimestoppers.net.

Mounties shut down a section of Highway 97 near Adams Road for about four hours while the incident was unfolding.

RCMP say they have now cleared the scene of the incident.

Global News is reporting a relative is saying on social media her brother, Jeremy Kofoed, was killed in an alleged murder-suicide after an argument with a person he knew at the business.
