Warrants issued for the arrest of Wabasca armed robbery suspect
Wabasca RCMP have one of two suspects in custody after a heavy police presence in Calling Lake yesterday (Monday, Jan. 26).
Mounties say a resident had their truck stolen at gunpoint early in the day. Officers then tracked it down and began a pursuit, during which one of the two suspects in the stolen vehicle pointed a firearm at RCMP.
Thanks to the use of a tire deflation device, the vehicle was eventually contained in Calling Lake, but the male suspect managed to flee RCMP’s Emergency Response Team (ERT), Police Dog Services and the Crime Reduction Unit, and has yet to be located.
However, he has been identified as 28-year old Calling Lake resident Jamie Elroy Noskiye, and anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to contact the Wabasca detachment at 780-891-3765 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
