Vehicles hit striking casino workers in Kamloops
KAMLOOPS — Striking BCGEU workers are alleging two of its members were deliberately hit by vehicles in separate incidents over the past few days outside Cascades Casino in Kamloops.
“Kamloops RCMP has been called twice regarding people who are picketers at Cascades Casino,” says Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie.
“In both situations it was reported that a vehicle was attempting to go into the parking lot. The picketer was standing, blocking the roadway and the person who was picketing has stated that they felt they were hit by the vehicle or bumped by the vehicle.”
