RCMP still searching for suspect following North Battlefords Amber Alert
NORTH BATTLEFORD, SASK. — RCMP are still searching for a suspect in connection with an abduction of a child that triggered an Amber Alert in the prairie provinces.
During a news conference Wednesday morning, Corporal Rob King with Saskatchewan RCMP says Major Crimes North, North Battleford GIS and Forensic Identification Sections are assisting with the investigation.
The news conference also revealed additional details about the discovery of the girl, who was in a car that was stolen from a strip mall in the town Sunday evening.
At 6:45 a.m., workers in a remote, industrial area within the city limits discovered a vehicle parked in a paved road in some bushes. When North Battleford RCMP officers arrived on the scene with EMS personnel, it was determined the vehicle matched the description of the one in the amber Alert.
