Recognizing mail theft as an issue in the South Okanagan, in October 2016 the Oliver Detachment executed a search warrant for stolen mail in problem residence in the community. A Postal Investigator from Canada Post assisted in providing evidence in this matter which led to 5 charges against one person, including being in possession of stolen mail, mischief and theft.
In November 2016, the Penticton Target Enforcement team in collaboration with the Oliver Detachment were able to recover several high value stolen items from a rural property outside of Oliver. This included a stolen vehicle and trailer from Penticton and a stolen trailer with 3 ATV’s from Princeton.
