RCMP FILE: 2020-9866
At 7:40 a.m. on February 19, 2020, two men entered a hotel located on the 2400 block of Highway 97 North in Kelowna. Once in the lobby, one man attended the breakfast area while the other headed to the client services area where he proceeded to cut the security cable from a laptop and conceal it in his jacket. They left the hotel, one with a black Dell Latitude 3340 laptop and the other with a “free” breakfast, departing in a white Acura sedan. The accomplice has been identified, but RCMP are requesting help in identifying the laptop thief, described as a Caucasian male, 30-40 years old, 6’0” tall with a medium build wearing black pants and shirt, black ball cap and a light grey khaki jacket. If you know this alleged thief, please contact Kelowna RCMP or remain anonymous with Crime Stoppers.
