Macklin RCMP responded to several criminal and public safety calls between April 1 and 14, including multiple ongoing investigations into vehicle thefts, property crime, and harassing communications.
RCMP are actively investigating two separate reports of stolen trucks, along with a reported theft from a motor vehicle. Officers also received a report of a break and enter at golf sheds at Macklin Lake Regional Park. That matter remains under investigation.
In a separate incident, police responded to a report of a vehicle colliding with a local business and fleeing the scene. The investigation into the alleged hit-and-run is ongoing.
Police also received a complaint of harassing communications and a Mental Health Act-related call, speaking with the individuals involved.
Officers responded to a fraud complaint but were unable to proceed due to insufficient evidence. In another matter, a found cellphone was turned in to RCMP and is being followed up on.
RCMP spoke to individuals reportedly loitering near a business. No further police action was required following the interaction.
During the two-week reporting period, officers also responded to four traffic complaints, two false 911 calls and one false alarm.
