Careful burglars hit Castlegar sporting goods store

At least the thieves didn’t break any windows.

RCMP say they’re investigating a break and enter to a sporting goods store in the 600 block of 18th street in Castlegar.

Sometime between the late Friday and early Saturday, someone removed a pane of glass to get inside and made off with various items.

RCMP are canvassing nearby businesses and witnesses to determine who the suspect or suspects may be.

“The removal of the glass would have taken a certain amount of time,” said Sgt. Chris Manseau in a news release.

“Frontline investigators are working closely with partners in the community to determine if specialized tools or education were factors in this theft.”

Police are asking anyone who spotted anyone else in the area between 10 p.m. on Friday and 6 a.m. on Saturday, or who has any other information, to contact them at 250-365-7721.
