Two thieves in 100 Mile House had two accidental passengers inside a vehicle they lifted on Birch Avenue.
100 Mile House RCMP say the vehicle theft occurred around 10:45 a.m. and 11:50 a.m. on June 2 on the 200 Block of Birch Avenue. Sergeant Brian Lamb says two male suspects stole a gray 2011 Mazda 2 that was left insecure for a brief time.
Alongside the car, Lamb says the two suspects were either unaware or didn’t expect to have two large dogs inside the Mazda. The thieves eventually released the dogs.
“Shortly after, the vehicle was observed near the intersection of Blackstock Road. Two males were observed dropping the dogs off before leaving the area.”
The dogs were returned to the owner, unharmed. However, the vehicle is still unrecovered.
Police say the gray 2011 Mazda 2’s license plate is TR7 17D. Anyone who has seen the vehicle or has information on the incident is asked to call the 100 Mile House RCMP detachment.
