Police encourage anyone who becomes the victim of a theft or robbery during a buy-and-sell transaction to immediately report the incident to police, so evidence can be gathered and investigated quickly.
Investigators believe multiple suspects were using the same Facebook profile with the name “Chris Luma” to pose as a prospective buyer.
On May 29, police executed a search warrant at a home on the 100 block of Cedardale Road S.W., where they found stolen electronics, stolen licence plates and arrested one suspect. Also on May 29, a search warrant was executed in the 4400 block of Richardson Way S.W., resulting in the arrest of a 15-year-old boy, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. The 15-year-old faces charges of robbery and theft under $5,000. He is due to appear in court on June 16. Crimes can be reported to the CPS non-emergency line at 403-266-1234 or by calling 911 for crimes in progress.
