Kamloops, BC – A bloody blue “Ikea” area rug that was recently turned into the Barriere RCMP Detachment has now been confirmed to be associated with a violent criminal act. The South East District Major Crime Unit has assumed conduct of the investigation.
Major Crime Investigators are unsure of where the 5’ x 8’ area rug came from other than from the Kamloops region. As the specific circumstances surrounding the blood on the area rug are unknown, the RCMP is seeking the public’s help in determining its origin.
“Investigators believe the nature of the offence was targeted and that no danger to the public exists”, says S/Sgt. Jason Smart, NCO i/c of the South East District Major Crime Unit.
Attached for reference is a stock image of the Ikea area rug.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the South East District Major Crime Unit Tip Line at 1-877-987-8477.
