Stolen burial urn returned to family

The victim of a theft from vehicle, who’s father’s ashes were stolen, has had the burial urn returned following word of mouth via social media.

The Penticton RCMP were advised on Monday, February 12, 2018 that a stolen burial urn containing a man’s father’s ashes has been returned in part by the details being circulated via Facebook over the past couple days.

“A friend of the man, received a message advising that the burial urn was currently located at a Penticton residence. Arrangements were made for it to be returned during a private meet in Penticton. All is well that ends well in this case. Again it’s a reminder to not leave items in plain view in your vehicle, especially not loved ones. ” stated Cpl Moskaluk
