The Rainy River District OPP is seeking the public’s help in solving thefts that occurred within the district.
On March 28 between the hours of 10:36 and 11:05 a.m., a male riding an all-terrain four-wheeled vehicle (ATV) attended a Pipestone Lake cottage.
Owners of the cottage report a water pump, a solar panel, and a battery were stolen.
Then on May 13, two suspects entered the secure compound of Hydro One on Holmes Avenue in Fort Frances by cutting a hole in the fence.
Both suspects left the scene by vehicle, only to return a short time later. The suspects retrieved items from the compound area and fled.
Hydro employees confirmed that five Husqvarna chainsaws were stolen from a service truck.
If anyone has information pertaining to these crimes, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or the Rainy River District OPP at 1-888-310-1122.
