Thirteen break-ins in east and southeast St. Albert in the last month have prompted local Mounties to issue a warning, specifically in areas located between the Anthony Henday and the Sturgeon River.
According to Mounties, this past weekend, officers responded to two residential break and enters in Kingswood and Pineview areas.
The first complaint was received on November 15, 2024 at approximately 5:35 p.m., when a house located on Placer Close had an unknown individual try to break into the rear patio door, causing it to shatter. The unknown suspect may have been spooked and took off without going inside the home. Sometime the same day, an unknown individual broke into a basement window of a home on Kingsbury Crescent and stole some jewellery and other items, before leaving the residence.
St. Albert RCMP believe these incidents are related and is asking the public with any relevant information related to these break & enters, such as CCTV footage, doorbell camera footage or witnesses who may have seen someone or something suspicious to contact St. Albert RCMP at 780-458-7700.
Residents are advised to take precautions, like installing an audible alarm and camera systems, turning on exterior lights or installing motion-sensor lights, and keeping interior lights on in the evening to maintain the appearance someone is at home.
