In his role, Cpl. O’Donaghey would send the media information regarding all breaking news incidents and other police media inquiries.

The police are still working towards appointing a new media relations officer and have yet to fill the position.

Kelowna Capital News wants to thank Cpl. O’Donaghey for his service over the years and we wish him all the best at his new post.
