RCMP asking public for patience in property recovery

Oct 11, 2018 | 11:53 AM

Battlefords RCMP have received an overwhelming response to its release on stolen goods yesterday, and have asked the public to follow some guidelines to see if their property has been obtained by the RCMP.

Make sure to attend in person between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. If you cannot get there in those hours, drop off a list, after hours, at the detachment. Staff will go through the property and get back to you as time permits. Ensure you leave your contact information and any pictures of the property.

Only call the detachment to claim property you have specific details for such as a file number, serial number, model number, or specific description. Your information will be taken and someone will get back to you.

If you are claiming property that was not reported to the RCMP as being stolen or lost, a report will have to be made, prior to the property being returned. Once again, this will have to be done in person.
