The Port Moody Police Department is seeking information from the public in the hopes of catching the suspects involved in several vehicle break-ins on the weekend.

The incidents took place on Sunday in the 100-block of April Road as well as the 1000-block of Alderside Road, where the suspects got into three unlocked vehicles. 

They were able to make off with $3,000 worth of sports equipment, a Macbook laptop computer, a telescope, binoculars and an iPhone. 

A darker-coloured Dodge quad-cab pickup truck was seen in the area and some of the suspects were caught on surveillance footage. 

Investigators said they are not sure whether another theft on Alderside earlier in the evening is related. In that incident, $4,000 in curling equipment was taken from a locked vehicle.

Police are reminding all residents to ensure their vehicles are locked and secured and that no valuables are left in their cars.

Anyone with any information about the thefts is asked to call Port Moody Police at 604-461-3456. Those who wish to remain anonymous can visit Crime Stoppers at www.bccrimestoppers.com.
