A business in Rutland was broken into in the wee hours of the morning and approximately $12,000 worth of tools and electronics were stolen.
Lux Homes, located at 106-145 Asher Road in Kelowna, was the victim of a theft at 4a.m. on Dec 1.
Owner Brad McNaughton told Capital News that the door was locked but the suspect popped it open.

“It is hard to run a business with the amount of theft that goes on,” said McNaughton.
In the past he had equipment stolen from his work cargo vans.
