On August 9, 2025, detectives from our Break Enter and Robbery (BEAR) Unit concluded an investigation into an individual who was believed to be involved in at least five significant property-related crimes between 2015 and 2025.

Detectives from the Integrated Crime Section executed a search warrant at an address in Wahnapitae in relation to the investigation. During the search, detectives seized over $200,000 in stolen property consisting of, but not limited to heavy equipment and trailers. The items recovered were stolen from residents across the province.

As a result, a 34-year-old man has been charged with the following offences under the Criminal Code of Canada

  • Possession of Property Obtained by Crime X5 – over $5,000

He was released on an appearance notice with a court date of October 29, 2025. His name cannot be released at this time as the information has not yet been sworn to through the court process.

We would like to commend the detectives from our Break Enter and Robbery (BEAR) Unit who demonstrated investigative skill and dedication in connecting a series of property-related crimes that occurred across the province. Through evidence collection, analysis, and collaboration with partnering agencies, they identified and arrested the individual believed to be responsible for these offences. Their diligent efforts not only brought a suspect into custody but also led to the recovery of approximately $200,000 worth of stolen property, returning valuable items to their rightful owners and reinforcing our commitment to community safety and well-being.
