RCMP seek public help to identify suspects in break-in at former Cowichan High School

BY Connect Newsroom - Ramandeep Kaur, Jan 6, 2026 3:11 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Police say officers were alerted shortly after 1 a.m. on January 3, 2026, when a security company reported an alarm activation at the closed school property.

North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance after a break and enter at the former Cowichan High School building in Duncan earlier this month.

Police say officers were alerted shortly after 1 a.m. on January 3, 2026, when a security company reported an alarm activation at the closed school property. Security personnel responding to the call found five males inside the building who appeared to be preparing to leave.

According to RCMP, the suspects, believed to be in their mid-20s, were seen carrying five Cowichan High School yearbooks from the 2020–2021 school year. A security guard was able to take photographs of some of the individuals before they fled the scene.

Investigators say the group left the area in a black Dodge Ram pickup truck described as having a loud exhaust system. No injuries were reported, and police have not released an estimated value of the items taken.

RCMP are encouraging anyone who recognizes the suspects, has information about the incident, or is familiar with the described vehicle to contact North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP at 250-748-5522.
