West Kelowna ATM TheftOctober 8, 2025On October 8, 2025, at approximately 4:26 a.m., officers responded to a report of mischief to the exterior of a bank located in the 5500 block of Clements Crescent. Upon arrival, police determined that suspects had used a front-end loader and a pickup truck to forcibly remove the ATM deposit box from the side of the building before fleeing the scene with it.
A short time later, officers located both vehicles abandoned not far from the bank, along with the stolen deposit box.
A Police Dog was deployed in attempt to track the suspects; however, they were not located.
