Have you ever had something stolen from your vehicle?
Prince George RCMP and ICBC have teamed up to bring an interactive display to Prince George to help address the problem.
On Wednesday, June 19, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Spot the Target display will be set up in the Pine Centre mall parking lot. Visitors will have the chance to see if they can spot all of the potential targets inside a vehicle.
“This initiative is aimed at getting drivers to take a closer look at what is being left behind in their vehicle when they park it. Many of the items we leave out for our convenience become potential targets for thieves and increase the likelihood our vehicles will be broken into for these items,” states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, media relations officer for the Prince George RCMP.
People visiting the display will get to look inside a parked car to see how many potential “targets” they can find.
Those participating in the event will have the opportunity to enter their name into a raffle to win a prize.
