CRIME: BREAK AND ENTER

DATE: March 5, 2011

RCMP FILE: 2011-8972

Thieves entered a Lake Country gravel delivery business and gravel pit on the 9000 block of Glenmore Road sometime overnight between March 4 and 5, 2011. It is unknown where the thieves entered the property, but once inside they used a bolt cutter to cut the padlocks on a gasoline and diesel tank in the yard and stole a quantity of fuel, filling and taking several gas cans from the property. They then entered a parts trailer through a small opening and stole approximately 25 3.78 litre jugs of motor oil, jugs of antifreeze and several dozen tubes of lube grease. It is believed the suspects used a large yellow bag from the trailer to carry the products off site.
