Vernon North Okanagan RCMP have launched an investigation into a break and enter and theft at a Vernon business.

Mounties responded to a report of a break and enter in progress in the 3100-block of 30th Ave, around 3:45 a.m. Monday, April 7.

Police arrived on the scene and found a large display window had been smashed and the front door unlocked, though the suspects had already fled the scene.

Security footage from the business captured all three suspects on tape, who were wearing disguises during the B&E.
