In total, over 2700 pieces of lumber, that were wrapped in “West Fraser Mills” wrapping paper, were stolen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The stolen container is a faded red colour and is marked, ‘TGCU 503616-0 / TARE: 3770’.

The stolen trailer bears BC license plate D3664P and has a marked unit number of CDAZ6848. “The photo quality we were able to obtain is not ideal for making a direct identification,” said Constable Richard Wright. “Our investigators do believe there are people in the community with further information and we are asking them to come forward to help us advance this investigation.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or, if you wish to make an anonymous report, please contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca, quoting file number 2020-33728.

 

The owner of the stolen trailer has updated investigators that the wrong license plate number was provided previously to police. The trailer that has been stolen actually bears the license plate number
