KAMLOOPS — Kamloops RCMP confirm officers are investigating a possible suspect vehicle in the death of a Kamloops teenager last Friday.

16 year old Jenn Gatey was killed after she was hit by a vehicle Friday evening on Pacific Way near Abbeyglen Way.

Over the weekend, RCMP distributed a blurry photo of a potential suspect vehicle, believed to be a black Jeep.

This morning, police tape surrounds a Jeep in a driveway on Sunshine Court in Dufferin.
