Prince George RCMP is currently looking to speak with victims of a particular type of parcel theft, where packages have arrived empty or with missing items.

We are currently investigating several incidents where people have picked up or received packages delivered by Canada Post where the bottom of the boxes have been cut open and resealed with tape. The packages are either missing several items or the boxes are arriving empty. A large range of items have been reported stolen so far, including individually wrapped presents, clothing, and electronics, states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer from the Prince George RCMP.

Investigators are looking to speak with anyone who has received a package like this any time since late October. Please contact the Prince George RCMP non-emergency line at 250-561-3300 to speak with an investigator. Quote file number 2022-41505.
