Two central Alberta men are facing charges after police seized a stolen generator at a rural location near Spruceview Friday morning.

It happened around 10:00 a.m. when Innisfail RCMP were notified by Blackfalds RCMP that a generator had been stolen from a rural location near Gasoline Alley.

Mounties say the generator had been tracked to a rural location near Spruceview, where it appeared to stop.

During the investigation, Innisfail RCMP received a tip from a member of the Raven Crime Watch Society which ultimately led to the recovery of the generator as well as the arrest of two suspects.
