Kitscoty RCMP arrested a man on April 11, 2023, after receiving a complaint of a suspicious male looking for fuel at a rural residence South of Lloydminster.
A member of the RCMP Crime Reduction Unit was sent to the area and the member found the male in the driver’s seat of a vehicle determined to have been stolen from Lloydminster several days prior.
Brandon Heuvel was arrested and charged with Possession of Stolen Property over $5000. Sgt. Corey Buckingham, Kitscoty RCMP Detachment Commander says this shows how impactful a call from the community can make.
“This is yet another great example of a call from a concerned citizen resulting in the apprehension of an individual involved in criminal activity.” Says Sgt. Corey Buckingham, Kitscoty RCMP Detachment Commander.
Following the investigation, Heuvel was released on an Undertaking with court set for May 23, 2023, at Alberta Court of Justice in Lloydminster.
