A grey sedan-style car may be involved in the vandalism spree, police said.

BC Transit says a dozen shelters along Lakeshore Road sustained damage sometime Tuesday night.

On Friday, BC Transit announced that it was updating its face covering policy and aligning it with the province’s mandatory mask order.

The president of Amalgamated Transit Union 1722 confirmed the news, adding the bus driver has been told to stay home for 21 days.

“I went to get on the public bus yesterday and I looked up and noticed the bus driver had no mask on."

An emotional plea was made by Kelowna bus driver Les Biggar.

According to police, a 17-year-old girl was reportedly followed onto a bus and assaulted by a man at 6:40 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3 in Central Abbotsford.

All scheduled routes in the region will be available all day free of charge.

Certain people, including children under the age of five or people that cannot wear a face covering because of medical reasons, will be exempt from the rule.

"The message from TransLink is very clear: come tomorrow, it's no longer an ask — you must wear a mask," said TransLink spokesperson Ben Murphy.
