Hey, all you Sherlocks out there! North Vancouver RCMP need your help.

They are trying to find the owner of a black satchel and the items it contained. It was turned over to them on Sunday, November 17, at around 10:00 am by a store employee at a Joe Fresh store near 16th and Lonsdale.

Here are a few conclusions RCMP think they can draw about this person, based on the items that were in the satchel:

Has good hygiene, probably with well maintained eyebrows
Is prepared to comfort a child who might scrape a knee
Prefers silver coloured jewellery to gold
Has an association to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank
Has an association to Westside Church in Vancouver
Wears a size Small
Prefers to make purchases in cash
Is probably wearing a watch

Is there anything they missed? Can you draw any other conclusions?

Unfortunately, the papers were very wet and most of the writing on the receipts was illegible so RCMP have been unable to follow up on them.

You might also notice they have deleted some of the items from the photo. They have done that so the rightful owner can prove ownership by describing the missing items.

If you have any ideas, you can comment on the Detachment’s Facebook page, Twitter account, or by emailing us at peter.devries@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
