A man from Horse Lake, Alberta, was arrested in Hythe on Monday after RCMP responded to a call of a suspicious person trespassing on private yards.

Beaverlodge RCMP attended the scene at approximately 12:30 a.m. They located the suspect, who was known to be wanted on outstanding warrants related to an investigation into a theft from a well site in September.

When officers told the suspect he was under arrest, the male attempted to flee on foot. However, officers were able to catch him, and place him under arrest without incident.

A search of his person resulted in the discovery and seizure of a loaded rifle, and three knives.
