Red Deer RCMP seeking help with July assault & robbery

Dec 16, 2021 | 10:15 AM

Red Deer RCMP are asking for public help to identify the suspect in an alleged assault and robbery from this past summer.

It was about 7:30 a.m. on July 11, police say, when a male arrived at the McDonald’s restaurant at 2502-50 Avenue on a bicycle.

The individual approached the occupant sitting inside of a parked 2012 Chevrolet Silverado and stole the vehicle.

Around 8:40 that same morning, the suspect drove the vehicle to a Fas Gas at 5926-54 Avenue where he allegedly attempted a robbery.

The suspect is said to have confronted a gas station employee and an altercation occurred. The suspect then fled in the stolen vehicle. Police would recover the vehicle later that day.
