KAMLOOPS — Tipsters, start your engines!

Kamloops Crime Stoppers is seeking information regarding the theft of two dirt bikes from a garage located in the Rose Hill neighbourhood.

The culprit, or culprits, made off with two Yamaha dirt bikes, a 2015 TT-R110E and a 2016 TT-R125LE.

Crime Stoppers says the bikes were “in excellent condition,” adding that the bikes would need ignition keys in order to use them.

“It is believed that either the ignitions will be damaged or replaced in order for the culprits to use these bikes. It is also believed that these bikes were a target as the culprit or culprits who took them, knew exactly where they were kept and when the homeowners would not be home.”

The belief is that somebody must have seen something as the bikes would have been loaded into a truck or someone would have had to have pushed them to another location.

The victims of this crime are said to “devastated” by this loss.

Anyone with any information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1 (800) 222-8477.
