“We are asking anyone with dashcams, security or doorbell cameras to please have a look at any recordings from yesterday morning to see if it captured anyone that could be the suspect,” said Cst. Crystal Evelyn.

“Just really think back to yesterday morning. Did someone you recognize bike off in a hurry? Did someone show up at your house or your neighbour’s house wearing similar clothing as the suspect? While officers continue to conduct neighbourhood inquiries, these are some of the questions the public can ask themselves to assist police in moving forward.”

Anyone with further information is asked to contact Kamloops RCMP at (250) 828-3000 and refer to file number 2022-5033.
