Police in Kelowna are investigating after the driver of a stolen truck allegedly smashed through the front window of a store and stole large amounts of sports memorabilia.

The R-C-M-P says the stolen white 2004 Ford F550 flat deck was taken about 10 minutes before the business was broken into and at least two suspects fled in a different vehicle.

Police are asking businesses in the area near the 300-block of Banks Road with C-C-T-V to  see if they captured the crime which happened around 4 a-m on Monday.

They say the investigation is ongoing.
