While saying the colourful, taped-up packages found so far throughout Osoyoos are harmless, RCMP maintain they are committed to find out the motive behind those who are dropping them off.

Sgt. Jason Bayda said several of the packages have been turned in at the detachment and officers have also found many of them.
