According to police, in late December, someone entered the Teck Coal Mountain View Office yard early in the morning and vandalized a vehicle. A hole was punched in the fuel tank and $140 worth of fuel was drained out.
A similar incident was reported to Elk Valley RCMP on January 8th, this time from two vehicles parked in the yard of Sparwood Communications on Red Cedar Avenue. Police estimate about $150 in fuel was stolen from the two vehicles.
