VALEMOUNT — A rash of thefts are keeping the Valemount RCMP busy.
On Aug.8 at 10:30 p.m., Valemount RCMP received a report of a break and enter to the Lakes District Maintenance yard on Blackman Road in Tete Juane.
“The suspect(s) forced open the front gate and attempted to steal fuel,” says North District RCMP Cpl. Madonna Saunderson. “A utility trailer on the property was broken into and over $5000 in assorted power and gas tools were taken. Tools included a jack hammer and a quick-cut circular saw.”
Two days later on Aug. 10, she says the Valemount RCMP were called to the Car Wash Depot on Ash Street where it was discovered that an individual attempted to drill out the locked cash boxes on site.
