A car theft suspect has apparently taken his own mugshot with a cell phone reported as part of an automobile theft in Cochrane.
A vehicle was stolen from the Big Hill Leisure Pool on Nov. 25 between 6:30-7:30 p.m.
RCMP believe the suspect gained access to the victim’s locker at the pool and stole the victim’s keys and credit cards. The stolen credit card was used at the Calgary Crowfoot Co-op Store for two different transactions.
The stolen vehicle was recovered later that evening along with a cell phone containing a “selfie” of the suspect.
The RCMP are asking the public for assistance with identifying the male suspect.
If you can identify the man in the photo (right), please contact the Cochrane RCMP at 403-932-2213 or Crime Stoppers at 1 800-222-8477.
