White Rock RCMP is on the hunt for a historic plaque that was allegedly stolen from an area near the city’s iconic pier.
The bronze plaque, which sat on the east side of the pier, was installed in 1992 to commemorate the creation of the White Rock Promenade.
Mounties could not say exactly when the plaque was pilfered, but said that it is believed to have been taken on or prior to Aug. 15, 2019.

The landmark partially reopened on Aug. 27.
