Stan Smith wants his quad back.
As a man with both legs missing, he uses and needs the quad to get around the bush when he goes to the outdoors for recreational purposes.
Smith’s quad was on top of a trailer and both were stolen from his home in the 3700 block of Alexis Park Drive overnight Thursday.
“It was in the driveway when we went to bed around 10 or 10:30 p.m. Thursday, and I noticed it was missing Friday when I was heading out to an appointment at around 9, 9:30 a.m.,” said Smith.
The quad is a Polaris Ranger 400 side-by-side model, and green in colour. It’s valued at nearly $12,000.
The trailer is an all-black Snow Bear model, with licence plate number URX78V.
Smith said his insurance will not cover the theft because the quad and trailer were not locked up in a garage.
Anybody with any information on the theft is asked to call the Vernon RCMP detachment at 250-545-7171, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
