The Lacombe Police Service has identified three suspects in connection with a break-in and theft from a construction trailer earlier this month.
At approximately 3:40 a.m. on June 20, three suspects were captured on video surveillance breaking into a trailer owned by Grayson Excavating. The trailer was parked at a work site in the parking lot of Leto’s Steakhouse & Bar.
Several Milwaukee-brand power tools were stolen, including batteries, saws and other equipment. The estimated value of the stolen items is between $800 and $1,500.
Through surveillance footage and investigative efforts, police have identified the suspects. All three individuals are known to police and currently reside in Calgary. Warrants for their arrest will be sought as the investigation continues.
Police are reminding the public and local contractors to secure their equipment and work sites whenever possible. Theft of tools and equipment can cause significant disruption and financial hardship for businesses.
Anyone with information related to the incident is asked to contact the Lacombe Police Service at 403-782-3279 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
