DAVIDSON—Police are looking for information to help find the person responsible for stealing a Ford pick-up truck in Davidson.
Craik RCMP report that on Sunday, June 10, sometime between 3 and 7 p.m., a late 1990s Ford F-150 black, regular cab pick-up truck with a step-side box was stolen from a residence on the 200 block of Government Road in Davidson.
The suspect in the theft of the truck is described a First Nations female, in her early 20s, of average height and weight with shorter hair. The truck’s owner, prior to the theft, invited the unidentified suspect to the residence.
One wheel short
Craik RCMP is seeking the public’s help in its investigation of the theft of some rally wheels in Girvin.
Sometime between Saturday, May 26 and Thursday, June 7, three 15-inch factory rally wheels were stolen off a pick-up truck parked in a field at Girvin.

If all goes according to plan, by the end of August, they will have earned their wings.
Last Tuesday, the two received their power pilot scholarships at 40 Snowbird Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron’s annual review.
They are among seven cadets, selected from a group of 25 applicants in Saskatchewan, to receive the prestigious award valued at $9,200 to $10,000. The application process including passing a Canadian Forces qualifying exam as well as an interview and they had to write an essay. Emily and Jacob had to demonstrate they were motivated and have a sincere interest in learning to fly and that the are prepared to commit to the demanding study time required to become a pilot.
The scholarship covers the cost of the seven-week flight-training course. All the cadets have to pay is $160 for the Transport Canada examination fee and the pilot licence application fee.
If they successfully complete the training Jacob and Emily will be able to fly a single-engine aircraft such as a Cessna 152.
“I’m very excited. It gives me butterflies,” Jacob says.
