Cranbrook RCMP is requesting the public’s assistance in identifying the individual responsible for the theft of over $4,000.00 worth of Milwaukee tools during the early hours of July 20, in the 1200 block of 6th Street North, Cranbrook.
Surveillance footage has captured an individual in possession of the stolen tools at approximately 02:59 a.m. The suspect was then seen heading toward the industrial area of town.
The Cranbrook RCMP thank the community for their ongoing support.
“The tips generated from a previous release have been followed up on and we encourage residents to continue to report suspicious activity.” said S/Sgt Barry Graham.
Police are now asking businesses in the area of 6th Street North and the surrounding industrial areas to review their surveillance footage from June 20, specifically the hours just before 02:30 a.m. to approximately 04:00 a.m.
Investigators are particularly interested in any footage that may capture the suspect’s face and direction of travel.
“It’s easy to focus only on video that shows the crime itself”, said Graham.
“But footage showing a suspect in the area before or after an incident can be just as importing in helping us identify them and gather the evidence needed to support criminal charges”.
Anyone with information, surveillance, or dash cam footage is asked to contact the Cranbrook RCMP detachment at 250-489-3471 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
“Please continue to share, stay alert and report anything suspicious.”
