A statement from the Comox Valley RCMP does not specify exactly where the incidents occurred or how many vehicles were affected, saying only that they took place around 2:30 a.m. on July 10.
Two suspects "poured oil all over the driver/passenger seats and the centre console" of some vehicles and "coated the interior" of others with "a white, powdery paint," according to police. "This appears to be a random, completely absurd, act of mischief," said Const. Monika Terragni, media relations officer for Comox Valley RCMP, in the statement."We are looking for assistance to identify one of these suspects so that we can follow up accordingly," Terragni said.
