Mounties are investigating after hundreds of “anti-COVID” posters were glued to poles across Kelowna.
A man was caught on camera putting them up on Sept. 23 at about 1:22 pm in Stuart Park and, on Oct. 3, at about 5:15 pm at the Queensway Bus Loop.
Police are hoping to identify the man.
The posters were stuck to surfaces using wheat paste, Crime Stoppers explained, which is difficult to remove.
The exact content of the posters was not revealed.
Crime Stoppers said the male suspect rides a bike covered with reflective tape.
“He wears a bright yellow helmet, a black biking jacket with reflective stripes and carries a backpack with a yellow safety vest wrapped around it,” they added.
If you can identify the man, call Kelowna RCMP or, to stay anonymous, call the Central Okanagan Crime Stoppers’ tips line at 1-800-222-TIPS or visit their website at crimestoppers.net.
