A woman and her child were in the basement when a break and enter occurred at the West Kelowna home of her parents, and RCMP are asking for help to track down the alleged perpetrator.
The incident took place in the 3200 block of McIver Road Aug. 10, while the homeowners were out for a walk. Their adult daughter and her child were in the basement, RCMP said in a press release.
“The daughter heard the commotion upstairs but believed it was her parents back from their walk,” RCMP said in a press release.
“The male suspect broke in and stole cash and a credit card before leaving the home shortly after. He then used the card at three local West Kelowna businesses before the card was reported stolen.”
Surveillance video from the businesses shows the male suspect making transactions and wearing a dark-coloured camo shirt with a hood over his head, sunglasses, a grey baseball hat, dark jeans and white/orange running shoes.
