An Edmonton man who broke into a rural home in De Winton and stole cash and a gun while wearing a vest that read "police" has been found guilty in the 2019 home invasion.

But midway through the trial, the charge of impersonating a peace officer was withdrawn after the judge noted the Crown hadn't called evidence to prove Babic was not a police officer. This is the fourth time a trial has been scheduled for Babic, who is now representing himself after going through at least three defence lawyers.

McLachlan saw a pickup truck drive onto his property and testified he assumed the man who approached his home was an officer because he was wearing a vest that read "police."He then demanded access to McLachlan's safe.
