No one is laughing as police find debris on road in Fruitvale

Trail RCMP aren’t amused, with police suspecting tree stumps, rocks and a signpost found across Bluebird Rd and Walnut Avenue in Fruitvale was a prank.

“We asked the pranksters to please refrain from this kind of prank that could cause vehicle damage or injury to the vehicle occupants,” said Sgt. Mike Wicentowich.
