TWO HILLS - Between Dec. 30, 2023 and Jan. 4, 2024, 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, Sask. The Eastern Alberta District General Investigation Unit and North Battleford General Investigation Services were contacted and are aiding in the investigation.
"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 damage. The suspects then proceed to steal various items, including ATMs, liquor and cigarette. Footage of the suspects was obtained and images are attached. 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," an RCMP media release states.
Alberta and Saskatchewan RCMP are seeking public assistance to identify and gain more footage of the suspects and the vehicles used. These suspects are believed to be armed and dangerous and the public is asked NOT to approach them. If anyone has any information regarding the suspects or their location, please contact your local RCMP detachment or police service.
