A large police presence was spotted at an acreage north of Calgary on Thursday evening, but officials are remaining tight-lipped as to why they were on scene.
Aerial footage captured by Global News’ Global 1 helicopter at around 5:30 p.m. showed a number of RCMP officers and firefighters on a section of land in the rural community of Bearspaw. Officers were standing near a building on the property.

RCMP would only say their presence at the acreage was “part of an ongoing investigation.”
“To share more information right now won’t help our investigation,” RCMP Cpl. Laurel Scott said.
She said there is no risk to the public.
Bearspaw, a part of Rocky View County, is located about 30 kilometres northwest of Calgary.
