It is disturbing that someone in our community would intentionally damage public property, especially in areas frequented by families and visitors, but that they would use racist words and symbols is particularly disgusting, said Constable Patti Evans, Summerland RCMP spokesperson. The person who reported this crime and many other community members have expressed their disapproval and disdain for the language used and the crime committed.

If you have information that may assist in this investigation, please call the Summerland RCMP at 250-494-7416 or Crime Stoppers at 1(800) 222-8477.
