Burnaby Mounties are on the hunt for two Vancouver women they allege are behind a series of mail and storage locker thefts around the city.
An investigation into the crime spree was initiated by Burnaby’s prolific offender suppression team in November. The investigation focused on two specific types of thefts – thefts from mailboxes and storage lockers in residential buildings.
About two weeks into the investigation, officers executed a search warrant at a home on Hastings Street in Vancouver. While some evidence was collected during the search, the two suspects were not found, according to Burnaby RCMP.
Warrants were issued by Crown counsel for the arrest of 34-year-old Lisa Michelle Bradfield and 32-year-old Natasha Lynn Mowat, both from Vancouver. The women are facing a laundry list of charges, including personation with intent to gain advantage; break-and-enter; and fraud.
