Another red Polaris ATV was taken from Vernon, above Swan Lake on McLennan Road, only this one was a 500.

A yellow 2011 Can Am Commander XT was stolen from a driveway in Parker Cove (off Westside Road) sometime in the early morning hours of Saturday, Oct. 24.

“It was either when I was at work Friday night at the Cineplex, or it happened in my driveway at home that night up on Middleton Way,” Porter told the Morning Star.

And she wasn’t the only one.
