Routine patrols leads to arrests at industrial park business in County

May 10, 2019 | 11:20 PM

Two men were arrested in Red Deer County on Thursday as Blackfalds RCMP members were doing routine patrols.

It was in the early morning hours when members were doing patrols at an industrial park in an effort to curb crime, they say.

Whilst doing so, they observed a truck parked and running in front of a closed business. When a member approached, the truck fled and two other males fled on foot.

With aid from Red Deer area Police Dog Services, the males were located nearby and taken into custody.
