Kamloops, British Columbia

From Kamloops Citizens for change.

What happens when you’re a wanted person in Kamloops ?

550 pm: I spotted David Bosanac sitting at the Transformer boxes on Seymour Street. 3 no-shows for court since February. Picked up a friend and grabbed coffees because this will be a long wait.

557 pm: called the cops, gave his info and location. I was told they will respond (which indicates he does have a warrant).

620 pm: Bosanac has now left towards Riverside Park. Updated the police about this.

622 pm approximately: RCMP drive by. Can’t find him.

I chalk this up to an “Oh well !”

708 pm: I’m driving back home on Lorne Street and spot Bosanac with two friends in the train yard property near the Red Bridge. Report this to the Call Takers. They are not happy with my attitude. They also say that calling CP won’t make a difference because they don’t work at night.

710 - 718 pm: Bosanac and his friends now smoking drugs on railway property. Guy in the brown hoodie is cleaning his pipe.

720 pm: Police arrive. Bosanac and his friend have now escaped into the train yard. Where there are running locomotives. Now you have a wanted person with access to railway equipment.

How will this end ?

Just a note: I am not searching for this person, but did see this person twice in 2 hours without even looking. This is the second time in 2 months I have called about having spotted him and knowing he has a warrant.

My apologies to the Call Takers. You need to send this stuff out at a higher priority. Now your officers are searching train yards because of your slow responses.

Update: This was CP property. I called the CP Police and they were very interested to know this happened. CP has informed me they should have been informed that their yard had been breached. If it is believed a person is on live tracks all train traffic needs to be held. They don’t believe this was reported and will investigate.

They rule the streets, riverbanks, and train yards.
