A pair of Sylvan Lake residents are facing charges after central Alberta Mounties seized drugs and stolen vehicles in Delburne last week.

On July 19, 2023, at 11:45 p.m., Three Hills RCMP were dispatched to a suspicious truck and ATV which were parked in Delburne.

Mounties say the investigation revealed that the truck, a Ford F550 and Yamaha ATV, were both reported stolen out of Consort, Alta. A male and female were placed under arrest and taken into custody. The female was found in possession of cocaine and crystal methamphetamine.

Jacob Vincent, 26, has been charged with the following:

  • Possession of property obtained by crime over $5000
  • Possession of property obtained by crime under $5000
  • Fail to comply with release order (x5)

Following a Judicial Interim Hearing, RCMP say Vincent was remanded into custody to appear at the Alberta Court of Justice in Drumheller on July 21, 2023.

Charges are pending for a female resident of Sylvan Lake, Alta. Mounties say an information has not been sworn before the court, therefore, the name of the individual cannot be released at this time.

Three Hills RCMP would like to thank members of the public with their assistance in this matter and advise that their investigation is continuing.
