Game stolen.  I watched our Invermere girls go down to Kamloops 3-0 in the first period.

Kamloops dominated the first.  Invermere, in probably the most exciting game so far in the Provincial Midget tournament bounced back to tie the game 3-3 and win it in the last moment 4-3.

Great game girls.  And, if you happen to see Floyd Verge with a more pronounced limp than normal, the bell he was clanging in my ear needs to be surgically removed.  Hopefully he can make an appointment before another game. If not, you may hear the bell, but it will be muffled.

The detachment received a further complaint of theft from a vehicle in the 7400 block of Rivercrest Road in Radium.  A wallet was stolen from an unlocked vehicle. It appears someone is active in Radium checking cars.  Lock the cars and keep valuables out of them. There are drug habits to support and drug debts to pay off and your valuables are a way of supporting this habit.
