Police responded to 12 calls in Sun Peaks in the month of November.

The owner of $6,000 in stolen construction tools from a lot on Lookout Ridge Place was able to locate and recover the items in Kamloops. Police are continuing to look into the matter.

Police and Search and Rescue responded to call involving five snowmobilers stranded on McGillivray Lake Forest Road on Nov. 17. All were dressed for the weather and managed to hike back to their vehicles by the time help arrived. All declined to be examined by ambulance.

On Nov. 23, police received a complaint of a snowmobile travelling on the Valley Trail and the golf course, causing damage to the greens underneath. Police are investigating the matter and remind the public anyone caught damaging the golf course could face criminal charges or civil action.
