Child in stolen SUV found “safe and unharmed,” vehicle recovered: police
FORT MACLEOD, Alta. — Police in Alberta say a six-year-old boy who had been inside an SUV when it was stolen has been found “safe and unharmed,” and the vehicle has also been recovered.
RCMP say a 2009 grey Chevrolet Tahoe was stolen late Monday from a residential area of Fort Macleod, a town of about 3,000 in the southwest corner of the province.
The child and the vehicle were both found within a few hours. No suspect information has been released, and police say the investigation continues.
The incident came just over 24 hours after an Amber Alert was issued when a Mercedes SUV was stolen in North Battleford, Sask., with a six-year-old girl in the backseat.
