Maple Ridge, B.C. – A Ridge Meadows RCMP multi-unit operation involving the Specialized Response Team (SRT), Street Enforcement Unit (SEU), and Mental Health Unit (MHU) has resulted in the recovery of over $200,000 in stolen property.

On May 9, 2024, the Ridge Meadows RCMP received and responded to a report from a property representative regarding stolen commercial equipment which had been tracked by a GPS locator to a property in Maple Ridge.

Investigating officers immediately set up surveillance around the property where the stolen commercial equipment was believed to be stored. One person was arrested for possession of stolen property.

The prompt response and combined effort of the various units involved not only helped recover the property of this complainant but also yielded a positive outcome for additional property representatives, states Sergeant Joe Whalley with SRT.

This is currently an active and ongoing investigation and no further information is available at this time.
