On October 28, 2024 at approximately 11:45 p.m., Broadview RCMP received a report of a robbery at a business in Whitewood, SK.
Investigation determined an individual was parked outside of the business. An adult male approached the victim, deployed bear spray at him, then physically forced him from the vehicle. The suspect then stole the vehicle, striking the victim with it as he fled. The victim, an adult male, was taken to hospital with injuries described as non-life-threatening in nature.
Officers immediately responded and located the vehicle on the Cowessess First Nation. They activated their emergency lights and sirens and attempted a traffic stop. The vehicle did not stop immediately, but later came to a stop and the four occupants fled on foot.
Saskatchewan RCMP’s Police Dog Services and Remotely Piloted Aircraft System arrived to assist.
Two of the four occupants have been located. No charges have been laid against them at this time.
Broadview RCMP continue to search for suspect in the robbery, as well as the fourth occupant in the vehicle.
