Hanna RCMP are looking to identify a potential witness to an incident involving a stolen calf in the Hand Hills area.
On Monday, March 22 between 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. a calf was stolen from a field in the Hand Hills area near Hanna. The calf went missing shortly after the owner had seen the calf and cow pair while doing chores.
Approximately an hour later the calf was noticed missing and there were prints indicating the calf may have been led away from the area and loaded onto a vehicle.
The owner saw a vehicle in the same time frame as to when the calf went missing but isn’t sure if they would have had anything to do with the theft. The vehicle is described as a white half-tonne Ford Ranger with purple graphics on the side and driven by a lone Caucasian male.
The missing calf is all black and is from this year.
Hanna RCMP are looking to identify the driver of the truck to speak to only as a potential witness. There is no evidence at this point in the investigation to indicate this person had any involvement in the theft.
If the vehicle is seen, please call Hanna RCMP immediately at 403-854-3391 with the location of the vehicle. Do not approach or pursue and remember this person is only considered a potential witness at this point.
Any information about this crime can be given directly to the Hanna RCMP. Anonymous complaints can be provided to Crime Stoppers. Crime Stoppers gives cash rewards for information that leads to an arrest.
