Just before 7:30 a.m. on Monday (Aug.8), RCMP were called to a possible abduction on Saddle Lake Cree Nation. Upon officers' arrival, the two suspects fled from police in a red pickup truck.

The male and female suspects, believed to have been armed and dangerous, were later located in the Smoky Lake area, approximately 40 minutes northeast of Redwater.
