Brandon Humbke, the acting operations officer for Central Alberta District RCMP, said an incident that unfolded on April 10, 2024 led to search warrants being executed that saw significant amounts of stolen property be seized.
Humbke said the RCMP then obtained two search warrants for a property in the Breton area and a property in Parkland County.“Both warrants were planned to be executed on the morning of April 12,” he said. “Just prior to the start of the Breton search warrant, a break and enter was reported near Rimbey, … the suspects were observed to return to the Breton residence.”
“These are high-ticket items,” Humbke said, noting that trailers, a boat, snowmobiles and even a hot tub were among the stolen items discovered by officers. “Seeing all of it together in one location, it is a surprise for sure.”Story continues below advertisement
