Ridge Meadows RCMP shared this photo of a water pump reported stolen from a farm on June 2, 2023.
Police are asking people to be on the lookout for a massive piece of farm equipment that was reported stolen in Pitt Meadows Friday.

The water pump is valued at approximately $50,000. This is a substantial piece of equipment that would require the assistance of another vehicle to be transported," a spokesperson for the Pitt Meadows RCMP said in a statement.
