Three Hills and Stettler RCMP say they are actively looking for an individual breaking into homes.

On Feb. 6, 2023 at 8:09 a.m., RCMP received a report of a break in and robbery to a home on Range Road 235 in Kneehill County. When the homeowner confronted the suspect, Mounties say the suspect held a small knife to the homeowner and fled. The homeowner received a minor cut as a result of the confrontation.

On Feb. 6, 2023, at 9:50 a.m., Stettler RCMP received a report of a break and enter to a home on Highway 56 in Stettler County. Police say the homeowner observed a suspect on their video surveillance cameras breaking into their home. The suspect is alleged to have stolen items from the victim’s garage and fled the area.

RCMP believe these two offences have been committed by the same individual and are asking for the public’s assistance.
