The pick-up truck was last seen travelling east of Lloydminster, approximately four miles from Hillmond in the Maidstone area, at around 6:30 p.m. The vehicle was travelling at high speeds and drifting in and out of oncoming traffic.

Because the driver is armed, if the vehicle or its occupant is seen, residents are not to approach and instead immediately call 911 or the local police of jurisdiction.

The investigation is ongoing.
