Vernon RCMP are on the lookout for a white van with some probable front-end damage.

Somebody hopped the fence at the locked yard of Chasers Bottle Depot, on 31st Street in Vernon shortly before 5:30 a.m. Thursday, and headed to a white company Ford E250 van.

They left the compound by driving the van through the locked gate.

“As of today, the van has not been recovered,” said Vernon RCMP Const. Jocelyn Noseworthy Monday morning.

“It likely has some damage to the front-end after ramming through the gate.”
