The VPD continues to work with retailers throughout Vancouver to conduct retail theft enforcement to address and deter this type of criminal activity
VANCOUVER – On June 28 and July 20, Vancouver Police partnered with multiple retailers in east Vancouver, and their respective loss prevention teams, to focus on retail theft.
The June 28 emphasis involved four retailers, lasted four hours and resulted in three arrests. The July 20 emphasis involved eight retailers, lasted eight hours and resulted in eight arrests, the seizure of two vehicles for search warrants and the recovery of stolen property.
Although both emphases focused on retail theft, in which those arrested were charged with Theft II and/or Theft III, additional charges including possession of a stolen vehicle, forgery, violation of a protection order and the apprehension of multiple wanted individuals were also a result of this focused enforcement.
