Medicine Hat, AB – A 36-year-old Redcliff man is facing a number of charges connected to break-and-enters and thefts in Saskatchewan.

Back in July, Leader and Kindersley RCMP began investigating break-ins at businesses believed to be related. Two ATM machines were among the larger items stolen. Both ATM machines were located by police but had no cash left inside.

Earlier this fall, Leader RCMP charged a man in connection to the break-ins and issued a warrant for his arrest.

On Nov. 19, police found a vehicle reported as stolen from Unity parked outside a business in Kindersley. An adult male was arrested near by and it was determined he was the man wanted by Leader RCMP.

Kindersley RCMP then executed a search warrant in Kindersley. Tool along with a trailer that had been stolen were seized. Officers have returned some of the items to their owners and are working to return further items.
