Maple Ridge, B.C – Ridge Meadows RCMP is investigating an incident that occurred at a local business in Maple Ridge.
On September 7, 2024, at approximately 04:32 a.m., Ridge Meadows frontline officers received a report from a local business in the 11900 block of 224 Street that the front window of their business had been smashed at approximately 04:05 a.m.
Police reviewed video surveillance footage and observed one person dressed in all black hit the front window with an object.
Prior to the incident, this business invested in smash-proof window film for their window, which prevented the suspect from gaining entry.

SRT was able to determine a route travelled by the suspects, which began at 03:59 a.m. in the parking lot of Valley Fair Mall. The suspects turned North from the parking lot at Valley Fair mall onto 227th Street, and then both headed West on Selkirk, where they were both observed travelling through the Walmart parking lot prior to the offence occurring at approximately 04:05 a.m.
The suspects are described as follows:
Suspect 1:
- Riding a bicycle,
- wearing light coloured shorts,
- and a dark shirt
Suspect 2:
- Riding a BMX style bicycle,
- wearing black pants,
- a black long-sleeved shirt
- and wearing a backpack.
