Lloydminster, AB – On January, 24, 2023, between 3 a.m. and 4:30 a.m., an unknown person stole approximately $250, 000 worth of tools from a vehicle that was parked overnight at a local business in the area of 44 Street and 56 Avenue.
After reviewing video surveillance, Lloydminster RCMP determined a lone person dressed in black clothing entered the parked vehicle, took the tools, then drove away in a vehicle. The licence plate of this vehicle was not observed in the video surveillance.
Later that day, the business received an anonymous phone call stating that the tools had been returned and were then located beside the truck where they had originally been taken from. The complainant was very happy to receive the good news of the recovered tools, as it would have been detrimental to their small business to have to replace them.
Lloydminster RCMP continues to search for a suspect in this matter. Anyone with information regarding this crime, or the identity of anyone involved, contact the Lloydminster RCMP at 780-808-8400. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), online at www.P3Tips.com or by using the "P3 Tips" app available through the App Store or Google Play.
