Search and rescue team has gear stolen after finding missing 7-year-old girl in B.C.

Coquitlam Search and Rescue members had their gear stolen on May 3 while helping extract a missing seven-year-old girl in Chilliwack.
The theft took place amid a several-day search effort for Lily Coursol, who disappeared on May 2 near the Chilliwack River Valley.
The gear, mostly self-funded by volunteers and worth $4,000 to $5,000 per bag, is essential for future missions and safety.
A GoFundMe started by Amber Price raised $9,780 by May 3 afternoon to replace stolen equipment and support the rescuers.
Replacing the equipment requires a substantial financial investment and is essential to ensure the team remains ready for emergency response operations.
