KAMLOOPS — RCMP would like your help tracking down some stolen surveying equipment, taken from a Kamloops North Shore location earlier this month.

In a news release, detachment spokesperson Cpl. Crystal Evelyn says the theft was reported to police on Friday, June 14 at about 1:00 p.m. The items were taken from a construction site in the 300-block of Campbell Avenue.

The equipment is described as a yellow Topcon attached to a tripod.

“The Topcon is designed to work with its sister piece of equipment, which is how its operators noticed it was missing,” said Evelyn. “It is useless as a single entity, but holds great value to its owners and is quite unique.”

The image pictured is the sister unit, which is almost identical to the one that was stolen.
