The Citizens on Patrol (COPs) are volunteers in Greater Sudbury who patrol communities and report suspicious or criminal behaviour.
Ironically, the COPs program was recently the victim of such criminal behaviour in Copper Cliff.
In the overnight hours of Aug. 15, unknown culprits damaged a Citizens on Patrol vehicle in the parking lot of the McClelland Arena in Copper Cliff.
The vehicle was found to have had most of its windows broken.
The COPs volunteers rely on the vehicle to patrol the community. They provide additional eyes and ears to the police, said a press release. The loss of use of this vehicle was quite consequential for them.
The COPs program would be grateful for any information that may lead to finding this culprit.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Greater Sudbury Police at 705-675-9171 or Crime Stoppers at 705-222-TIPS (8477) or www.sudburycrimestoppers.com.
