Armed and dangerous theft suspects sought by Eastern Alberta & Saskatchewan RCMP

The Eastern Alberta District General Investigation Unit is assisting in a series of thefts in the Lakeland area and beyond, with suspects that are looking to be identified and a suspect vehicle.

Between Dec. 30 and Jan. 4, Fort Saskatchewan, Vegreville, Two Hills and Turtleford RCMP received multiple complaints of robberies and thefts at local gas stations.

These thefts occurred in the towns of Lamont, Mundare, Two Hills, and Paradise Hill, Saskatchewan. 

The Eastern Alberta District General Investigation Unit and  North Battleford General Investigation Services was contacted and will be aiding in the investigation. 

Police say due to the similarity of the complaints, it is believed that these occurrences are connected.

In most cases, the suspects drove a vehicle into the building, causing major damages. The suspects then proceed to steal various items, including ATMs, liquor and cigarettes.

CCTV footage of the suspects was obtained and it is to be noted that suspect 3 is wearing a walking cast on their left foot. The vehicle used is described as a white, single cab pickup truck, with a tow bed and integrated hitch. 

While RCMP continue to investigate these occurrences, we are cautioning homeowners about the dangers of approaching suspects who are committing offences. The suspects are believed to be armed and dangerous and should not be approached. 

RCMP is seeking public assistance to identify and gain more footage of the suspects and the vehicles used. If anyone has any information regarding the suspects or their location, please contact your local RCMP detachment or police service. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), online at www.P3Tips.com or by using the “P3 Tips” app.
