Summerland Seniors Return Home After Three Weeks of Wildfire Evacuation

Thirty Summerland seniors returned home Friday after a three-week wildfire evacuation to Osoyoos, reuniting with their community and loved ones.

B.C. anti-gang police assisting with Penticton wildfire evacuations seized drugs, weapons, cash, and a vehicle during enforcement efforts.

Over 20,000 Okanagan residents evacuated as the 9,500-hectare Bald Range wildfire forces closures of Highway 97 and Summerland community operations.
