One of two people caught, allegedly prowling houses in Lehigh was sentenced in Alberta Court of Justice in Drumheller.
Dawn Sorowski appeared in the Alberta Court of Justice in Drumheller on Friday, December 13. She pleaded guilty to possession of stolen property.
On August 6, 2024 at about 5:30 p.m. RCMP received a report of a residential break-in that was interrupted by the owners in Lehigh.
RCMP responded and located a 2023 Kia Sorento that was stolen from Langley BC on Range Road 220 near Highway 575, west of Drumheller. Two suspects were observed and fled on foot into a field.
As a result, additional resources converged in the area, including Police Dog Services. At approximately 8 p.m., two suspects were located and taken into custody without further incident.
Sorowski and Brandon Gariepy of Moose Jaw Saskatchewan were jointly charged in the incident.
Sorowski pleaded guilty to possession of stolen property and was given a 12-month suspended sentence.
The coaccused Gariepy is scheduled to be in Court on January 8 in Calgary.
