Naramata – Four men are facing numerous charges after police responded to a string of break-ins and thefts on Monday.

On December 29, 2014 members of the Penticton detachment arrested four men believed responsible for several break-ins and thefts from Penticton and the surrounding area. Incidental to their arrest, police recovered several items of stolen property including stolen vehicles.

Police found all four suspects in the Chute Lake area after tracking them in the snow. None of the men were dressed for the elements and they could have suffered far worse consequences than criminal charges had police not been able to locate them in the sub-zero conditions.

Two prolific offenders from Kelowna and two men from Penticton face multiple potential charges of break and enter and theft. All four men are well known to police and have been held in custody pending a bail hearing later today.
