A representative from a rental company located on the 2900 block of Robinson Road in Lake Country contacted RCMP on May 7th to report a break and enter and the theft of a $400 petroleum pump.  It appears that someone jumped the fence to steal the General Petroleum 12 Volt pump, hose and nozzle assembly.  They also attempted to take a second one but were unable; resulting in damage to the threads that attach it to the tank.
