Police suspect sometime during the late night of August 8 or the early morning or August 9 the victim’s SUV was broken into and several items were stolen. Included amongst the stolen items was a silver cross that was hanging from the rear view mirror. 

The police have released a photo of the stolen cross, due to it being of extreme sentimental value to the owner. 

On August 10 police received a complaint of a theft of various lawn care tools at Fisherton Cemetery at Rundle Mission near Pigeon Lake.

The theft is thought to have occurred sometime between July 27 and August 2 with a shed on the property being entered by a lock being cut. 

Stolen from inside the shed was a Stihl line trimmer, a Husqvarna chainsaw and a Toro blower.

Anyone with information regarding these incidents are urged to call Thorsby RCMP at 780-789-3951; or Crime Stoppers.
