St. Albert police are reporting a rash of vehicle thefts that took place early Monday morning this week, and are looking for suspects.
In the period from 12:50 a.m. to 10 a.m. on July 11, four different vehicles were reported stolen in St. Albert.
At 12:50 a.m., a white 2004 Ford F350 truck with no licence plate was taken from Rayborn Crescent in the Riel Business Park.
Around 2 a.m., a white 1999 Honda Civic was stolen from the parking lot of the Apex Casino in the Campbell Business Park.
Some time overnight from Sunday to Monday, a burgundy 1999 Honda CRV was taken from Ainsley Place in Akinsdale.
During the same overnight period, somebody stole a white 1997 Honda Accord from its parking stall in the Tudor Glen area.
A driver was issued a traffic ticket after a Tuesday-morning collision that sent a pedestrian to hospital in St. Albert.
RCMP say they responded around 8:30 a.m. July 12 to a report of a female pedestrian struck by a car at the intersection of Hebert Road and Sunset Boulevard on the city’s south side.
A 50-year-old woman sustained minor injuries and was taken to the hospital. A 55-year-old woman was given a ticket for failing to yield to a pedestrian.
Police often have lost items turned into them as found property. When no one claims the items, they are either returned to the finder or destroyed.
Two specific batches of found items are coming up for destruction. The first are some suitcases full of clothes, while the second includes a bag left at a bus stop containing some food, children’s clothes, toys and a Leap Frog2GLO tablet.
If the owners are able to describe their items with specific details, the property can be returned to them.
St. Albert RCMP are hoping to reunite a lost camera lens with its owner.
The Sony camera lens was turned into police June 18, after someone found it near Big Lake on the west side of Ray Gibbon Drive. So far, no one has claimed this lens.
Police will return the lens to its rightful owner, providing they can provide specific details of the lens or show an invoice to demonstrate proof of ownership.
Anyone with information about these or any other incidents is asked to contact St. Albert RCMP at 780-458-7700 or phone Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
