Police say they have recovered four stolen vehicles and arrested one male suspect after an operation in Kelowna.

R-C-M-P say officers from its target team along with canine units executed a search warrant at a property in the 28-hundred block of Appaloosa Road on July 14th.

The search turned up three stolen utility-task vehicles and one all-terrain vehicle worth a total of 75-thousand-dollars, as well as firearms and some substances suspected to be methamphetamine.

Police say a 30-year-old man has been arrested and released on conditions, set to appear in court at a later date.
