Mischief involving pet waste bag dispensers
Cranbrook RCMP is investigating a series of mischiefs to pet waste bag dispensers that have occurred in local parks dating back to February.
Seventeen dispensers have been donated by The Playpen Pet Boarding and Grooming and identified by the business logo on each.
On three occasions logos were removed from units at Idlewild Park and once at Kinsman Park.
Steps were taken by the owner in May to secure plexi-glass plate over the logos. In June, four of the five units at Idlewild Park were vandalized with black spray paint to obscure the logo.
Cranbrook RCMP believe the acts are targeted and seek the public’s assistance in identifying the people responsible. The dispensers are placed by donation at the owner’s expense and benefit a large population of pet owners.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call Cranbrook RCMP at 250-489-3471 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Information can also be relayed via web or text based tips with details on canadiancrimestoppers.org
