Within hours of putting out a public plea for information about a stolen boat, the Mounties got their goods.
“The Kelowna RCMP would like to thank the citizens and businesses that assisted,” RCMP said in a Friday afternoon press release, adding that the boat was being returned to the owner shortly.
Earlier in the day, police said thieves made off with a boat and trailer Thursday and asked the community to report what they may have seen to help them track the watercraft.
