The Salt Spring Island RCMP is investigating after several Island Health signs were vandalized last weekend.

Officers were called after several VIHA signs, in place for a COVID-19 vaccination clinic on Jackson Avenue in Ganges, were spray-painted with a variety of messages.

鈥淲hether this mischief was meant to be a nuisance, a political statement, or otherwise is irrelevant,鈥� said Salt Spring RCMP detachment commander Clive Seabrook. 鈥淲e are in the middle of a pandemic and this mischief is 100 per cent unnecessary. I鈥檓 proud to stand alongside the health care professionals who are working very hard here for the residents on Salt Spring.鈥�

Officers are following up on several leads but ask anyone with information to call the Salt Spring detachment at 250-537-5555.
