Maidstone RCMP have arrested and charged three people with multiple offences, following a brief pursuit.
Officers responded to a call in the Town on September 10, where they located a grey SUV with two occupants and a white car with one female, determining that both vehicles were stolen. A female suspect, 24 year-old Gabrielle Bell of Onion Lake Cree Nation, was arrested on scene and charged with possession of stolen property, identify fraud and breaching a release order.
The SUV fled the area at a high speed, avoiding the officers attempt at a traffic stop. Later, police received a call that a man had filled up a jerry can at the store and left it on a sidewalk in Maidstone, where the SUV eventually came and picked it up, continuing to evade police. Shortly after, 27 year-old Steven Vu of Maidstone was arrested and charged with possession of stolen property and obstruction.
Later during the investigation, officers located the SUV passenger, 34 year-old Jeffery Gervais, who was arrested and charged with possession of stolen property and obstruction. The SUV was later recovered in Calgary, Alta.
