A Rutland man will be sure to lock his doors in the future after a break-in resulted in stolen property and even a stolen vehicle.

Early Thursday morning, the Kelowna RCMP responded to a report of a residential break and enter in the 300 block of Hollywood Rd. South, where they learned that a suspect broke into the home and allegedly stole electronic items as well as the homeowner’s vehicle.

The homeowner made a post to a local shop and swap Facebook group, pleading for the public's help in getting his belongings back and the post paid off.

A few hours later, police received reports of a suspicious vehicle that matched the description of the stolen vehicle in the area of Highway 33 and Roxby Rd. Officers in the area quickly located the alleged stolen vehicle in a parking lot.

Three female youths were sitting inside the vehicle and were taken into police custody without incident. A fourth youth was taken into police custody as she returned to the stolen vehicle.

Upon search of the 15-year-old teen, investigators found the stolen vehicles keys and she now faces potential charges.

Other items stolen from the house during the break-in are still missing, including a number of Playstation 4 games and controllers, a pair of over the shoulder bags and a leather jacket. If you know anything about the missing items, you're asked to contact the Kelowna RCMP.

“The Kelowna RCMP would like to thank the members of the public who reported the vehicle as suspicious to the police,” said Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey. “Often times people fail to report suspicious activity, while its occurring, because they don’t want to be embarrassed if their suspicions are unfounded.”

O’Donaghey also added that the RCMP reminds all residents to keep their doors and windows locked at all times, as it doesn’t take thieves long to slip in and out of your house undetected.
