POLICE – Businesses, vehicles hit in Sahali window-breaking spree
A suspect is in custody after allegedly a string of mischiefs that had Kamloops Mounties chasing a trail of smashed windows throughout Sahali overnight.
Just after 1 a.m. today (Nov. 17, 2023) RCMP were called to a report of a glass-break alarm at a pharmacy in the 700-block of McGill Road. When officers arrived, they located a large hole in the window of the business, but no evidence anyone had gotten inside.
Less than 10 minutes later, police responded to a second glass-break alarm at a business in the same block. While searching for suspects, an officer discovered a third business window had been vandalized.
“Throughout the rest of the morning we continued to receive reports of business windows/doors being smashed and two vehicle windows being damaged near the Sahali Shopping District,” said S/Sgt. Janelle Shoihet of the Kamloops RCMP.
“The suspect evaded capture until just before 6 a.m.”
“With assistance from a RCMP police dog and a witness, officers located and arrested a 38-year-old man in the 1300-block of Summit Drive. The man, who is new to Kamloops, is expected to appear in court today.
“In total, RCMP received 11 similar reports of mischief on Columbia Street, Springhill Crescent, McGill Road and Arrowstone, Notre Dame, Summit and Dalhousie Drives between 1 and 6 a.m.,” Shoihet said.
“We are asking anyone who was a witness or has video surveillance to call the Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3600 and cite file 2023-40889.”

His mom probably had trouble potty training him,poor kid. A slap on the wrist will suffice as usual. We have no prison farms left unfortunately. A stretch at chucking 75 lb. bales would have introduced him to a better use of energy and he probably would not want to do either any more.
