Gunshot fired in targeted home invasion Joanne Layh Editor, Peachland View A single gunshot was fired in Peachland early last Thursday morning during what police are calling a targeted home invasion. The gunshot was fired in the 5700 block of MacKenzie Road after four men reportedly broke into a home, causing the sole occupant of the dwelling to flee. Police received a report of the incident at 2:30 a.m. on August 23.
Cst. Kris Clark says neighbours were awakened by the sound of a gunshot and observed four men getting into a smaller white fourdoor pickup truck. According to police, the event was an insolated incident. “I don’t know what the motivation was behind it,” Cst. Kris Clark told The View. “But the tenants are known to police, not an extensive history by any stretch of the imagination, but they are known to us or at least the one was. The information we have is it appears to
be targeted.” West Kelowna RCMP are seeking “a number of suspects” but have no descriptions to offer at this time. There were no reports of injuries as a result of the gunshot. Police say the investigation is ongoing and are asking anyone with any information about this crime who has not already spoken with police to call the West Kelowna RCMP at 250-7682880, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or go to www.crimestoppers.net to file a report.
