RCMP in Maidstone, Sask. are seeking public assistance to help solve a number of recent crimes.

Between Dec. 16 and Dec. 22 a large amount of steel rig tubing was stolen from an oil lease site near Maidstone. Heavy equipment would have been needed to remove the tubing, and police said similar incidents have been reported in the Wainwright and Kitscoty areas.

During the late hours of Jan. 1 a red 1999 Honda Fourtrax ATV was stolen from a garage in Marshall. Police believe it was rolled out of the garage and loaded onto a truck or trailer.

The Legacy Fire Department confirmed a burning vehicle near Lone Rock Jan. 3 was stolen along with the license plate on it, Saskatchewan plate 122 JTL. The Ford F350 was reported stolen from Biggar.

Between Jan. 6 and Jan. 9 over two dozen road signs were vandalized along Township 482 in the RM of Eldon. The signs were deliberately damaged and run down by a vehicle, which was believed to be black in colour.

Maidstone RCMP responded to an attempted vehicle theft Jan. 14. RCMP said the ignition was tampered with sometime overnight.

Anyone with information regarding these crimes is asked to contact Maidstone RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
