Innisfail Mounties recently seized a bevy of vehicles, trailers, farm implements, stolen property and firearms from a rural property in Red Deer County.

Police say the items are linked to numerous break and enters and vehicle thefts throughout Central Alberta.  Both the Southern Alberta Livestock Section and the Innisfail Detachment General Investigation Section with the assistance of the Central Alberta Integrated Crime Reduction Unit were investigating the rural property.

Several RCMP specialized units were also part of the investigation: Central Alberta District Integrated Crime Reduction Unit, Red Deer Forensic Identification Section, Calgary Auto Theft Section, Red Deer Police Dog Service, Alberta Child and Family Services and Red Deer County Protective Services – Animal Control.  

According to police, Mark Daniel Radomske, 34, was allegedly defrauding beef producers of pasture rental. The accused was in possession of a stolen square baler which resulted in the execution of two search warrants uncovering evidence of a chop shop and recovery of over $200,000 of stolen property.
