A break-in and a car crash May 8 led to RCMP presence in Sun Peaks throughout the week.
Before 4:00 a.m. on Monday, Tk’emlúps Rural RCMP Detachment learned about a break-in at a garage on the 1500-block of Heffley Louis Creek Road. Shortly after, another report was made close to the location of the break-in regarding a motor vehicle crash, according to an email from Crystal Evelyn, a media relations officer for Tk’emlúps Rural RCMP.
