Police are on the hunt for a culprit after 30 Chromebooks were stolen during a burglary at a Brocklehurst school.
According to police, someone broke into a portable at Parkcrest elementary’s temporary home at the old George Hilliard school, 985 Holt St., on Jan. 3.
RCMP Const. Crystal Evelyn said the Chromebooks were stolen from inside the portable.
“Whoever is responsible for this crime literally stole from children,” she said.
“If you know someone who suddenly came into possession of a Chromebook, or is selling them second-hand, please contact police so we can investigate further and hopefully return some of these learning tools back to the kids who need them.”
Anyone with information can call police at 250-828-3000 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
