Breton RCMP are seeking the public’s help in identifying two suspects involved in a bank robbery in Warburg.
Breton RCMP tell us that on Nov. 28, 2021, shortly before 3 a.m., both they and Thorsby RCMP received a report of a break and enter in progress at a bank on 50 Street in Warburg. Heavy equipment was used by the suspects to ram the side of the building causing significant damage. Three suspects then fled the scene, making off with an undisclosed amount of money in a dark dually pick-up truck.
When RCMP arrived on the scene, they tell us that they found significant damage to the building. They searched the area, and found that the suspects had fled. Their investigation took them to a nearby business where the equipment in question – a front end loader – was stolen from. The suspects had forced entry into that building. RCMP Forensic Identification Section examined both crime scenes for evidence.
The investigation was able to identify the pick-up truck used in the crime. It was reported stolen in Warburg on Nov. 28, 2021 at around 8:30 a.m. It is a black 2007 Ford F350 with Alberta license plate VBK19.
