The Wetaskiwin RCMP is asking for the public’s assistance to aid their ongoing investigation into an incident in which a firearm was discharged with intent in a rural area outside of Millet, Alta.
On Aug. 18, 2021, at approximately 9 p.m., police received a report of two suspicious vehicles in Millet. The first suspect vehicle is described as a 2003, white Ford F350. This vehicle has since been recovered and was determined to have been stolen.
The driver of the white F350 was described as a Caucasian female with curly shoulder length light blond hair. She is believed to be between 20 and 30-years-old.
The second suspect vehicle is described as a black Ford F350 with a lout steel-tip after-market exhaust and chrome rear door handles. This vehicle remains outstanding. The driver of this truck was described as a skinny, balding, Caucasian man with short dark hair, a scruffy beard and average height.
The male driver of the black F350 shot at a witness who had attempted to stop the suspect vehicles. This caused damage to the victim’s vehicle, however they were not injured.
A police pursuit was initiated but was ultimately terminated.
Anyone who may have witnessed suspicious activity in Millet or the surrounding rural areas of Mameo Beach, Mulhurst Bay, Falun, and Pipestone, on August 18, or who has information about the offence or current whereabouts of the involved black F350 and/or suspects are asked to contact the Wetaskiwin RCMP at (780) 312-7267.
