INFO News has your answer – medical emergency
Maryka Nichol says
It landed near the prison just after 3:00 (after making a few low passes first). I heard it again around 5:00 – I didn’t hear any other copter noise between those times.
It was white with red and blue stripes. I thought either medivac or police. No other activity to be seen after it landed, and the access road was still open to traffic.
Publisher: Appreciate contribution Maryka – fits with the profile. Everyone seems to be denial.
My guess – someone at OCC needing serious intervention…… BCAS providing transport to large hospital.
Police know of course but did not involve their services as BC Corrections capable of gathering resources for any emergency at the OCC facility.

Black unmarked helicopter??
Publisher: Could have been a alien rescue unit
Initial report from reputable contact on Island Rd – operation at Park Rill intersection witnessed by second reliable witness.
Bill Eggert says
Well that is an interesting comment. The RCMP doesn’t work hand in hand with corrections? Did you ask for clarification?
Publisher: Still a mystery – witnessed by a number of people – not trained to take notes. Agree that police could have been a bit more forthcoming. So what is was – alien landing vehicle or whatever is still in question.
