Car stolen from Red Deer used in another vehicle theft in Drumheller

Dec 23, 2019 | 4:53 PM

Drumheller RCMP are investigating the case of a car stolen out of Red Deer being used in another incident in that community.

On Dec. 21, at around 2 a.m., a truck was stolen from a home in Drumheller. The victim heard it being driven away and followed it in another vehicle.

The victim located the truck with a suspect inside and confronted him.

A second stolen vehicle — a silver Volkswagen Jetta — pulled up alongside them with two more males inside. It’s alleged that one of the males brandished what’s believed to have been a handgun and pointed it at the victim before all three fled in the Jetta. No one was hurt.

The silver Jetta with AB plate RKM593 was previously stolen from Red Deer and is yet to be recovered.
