An unfounded report of explosive devices in a home in Kelowna’s Glenmore area prompted a large police presence and three arrests on Monday evening, Nov. 1.

Local Mounties responded alongside the RCMP Southeast District Emergency Response Team and the Explosive Disposal Unit, executing a search warrant at the residence, located within a multi-unit complex in the 400-block of Valley Road.

Mounties evacuated several homes in the area but ended up finding no explosives in the home.
